 * Symbol question.svg Hook within character limit; article is long and new enough; article is within policy; hook is interesting; copyvio unlikely; image is fine; QPQ done; the only quibble is that it isn't stated directly in the article and cited inline. It's more than likely pedantry on my part, but better safe than sorry., do you think you can do that right quick. Something like: "He was elected attorney general blah blah blah, which made him the first Democrat to sit in the office", or something like that. --cera don  15:58, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
 * , thank you tremendously for the catch and for your review of this article! I've added a statement following mention of his election to the main prose, with two inline citations. Please take another look and let me know if you see any further items that need to be addressed. -- West Virginian   (talk)  02:31, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
