Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia and the articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, try the sandbox, where you can write (almost) anything you want. -- The Red Pen of Doom  00:36, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

United States Senate election in Ohio, 2004
Your edit to this article was vandalism. The Democratic candidate was Eric Fingerhut, not Jim Traficant. this NYT link shows the results. Dave Smith (talk) 02:33, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
