House elections map needs fixing Red needed for the grey Iowa district as it was called for the Republican 71.169.164.31 (talk) 11:33, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

 Not done. Please provide a reliable source that the district (Iowa 2) has been called. Most sources I've look at haven't called it for the GOP. ◢  Ganbaruby!  (Say hi!) 14:15, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Comment- The seat was certified by state officials for the GOP candidate, but media outlets haven't called them because the Democratic candidate plans to appeal the results to the House of Representatives. Herbfur (talk) 18:50, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Net Seat Change for House Elections

Shouldn't the table at the top include the net seat change for House elections? This would improve consistency, as the table already shows the Electoral College vote numbers and the net seat change for Senate elections. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LordofChaos55 (talk • contribs) 19:41, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Added. We had been holding off because there were some uncalled races, but at this point there's just one outstanding race left and we can always change the number once it's decided. Orser67 (talk) 23:08, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Strange edit

I tried to undo an edit, and for some reason although the edit had removed 1,141 bytes, undoing it only added 2. It clearly did not undo the edit, but now it's saying I can't undo it because I've already undone it.

 Not done. Democratic is the proper adjective. Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 02:04, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

And Democrat Party (epithet), well, it's an epithet. – Muboshgu (talk) 02:20, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

It's the party of Democrats therefore it's the "Democrat party" if they wanted to be called the "Democratic Party" they should have called themselves "Democratics." 68.161.87.251 (talk) 21:21, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

Bias

“Deadly Attack” on January 6th makes the false implication that it was rioters that caused the death instead of a police officer shooting a protestor. 50.27.110.27 (talk) 15:17, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

No, "deadly attack" means it was an attack that was deadly, which it was to several people, including police officers. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:21, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

No police officers did not die from the attack.. one was naturl causes the next day. and now foot0age0 is comming out on officers w0ho lied0 about even being injured. not only lied about that but lied about preforming cpr on a woman. It's sad that people will lie to pus0h their own agenda a lot like the company. no one needs their context pushed on the to try to control how people 2607:FB91:1E4F:D75B:90D6:840E:7F16:C405 (talk) 09:25, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

Trump's Election Speech (the one that incited the January 6th Attack on the Capitol) was given on January 6th, 2021. In his speech, he even said he would march with them, immediately after the speech. Wikipedia is, incorrectly, reporting that the speech took place on November 3rd, 2020.

Again, the correct date on which the speech took place on January 6th, 2021.

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Don't see where in this article we mention that speech. Where do you see it specifically? Cannolis (talk) 18:12, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
