 * No answer, so I've boldly split out some of the sub-sections into their own articles. Some of those could do with splitting further, but it's a start. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 17:54, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

Senate elections & state legislature elections
Is there a way to bring the 'notable' contents over to the left side of the article? I've made attempts but was unsuccessful. GoodDay (talk) 18:42, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Oppose Primarily due to the presence of the primary topic: Third party (U.S. politics). – robertsky (talk) 20:28, 6 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Robertsky -- I'm not sure I support the rename, but your reason for opposing it doesn't carry any weight, since the phrase "Third party" is in a different syntactic context in that article than it is in the other articles. AnonMoos (talk) 02:07, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

 * Support per nom and MOS:HYPHEN#3. There isn't any inconsistency in using the hyphen only when the term is used as a modifier. SilverLocust 💬 05:00, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
