Contents
Georgia special
Actually, the November general is not really a primary, so it's a mistake to label it as "Republican primary"; under Georgia law, If nobody gets a majority, there will be a runoff in December of the top two vote getters, irrespective of party. It probably should be just ==Republican== or ==Republican candidates==. RobSDe Plorabus Unum 15:02, 28 February 2020 (EST)
- Changed "Republican primary" to "Republican candidates". --Liberaltears (talk) 20:35, 28 February 2020 (EST)
Linking to subheads
To link from the Table of Contents, we may have change each primary to a specific title. For example, Delaware ===Democrat primary=== should probably read ===DE Democrat primary=== or New Mexico ===Republican primary=== should read ===NM Republican primary===.

Countdown timer
The election countdown timer derives from my work - oh, a dozen years ago - at Wikipedia. I took a simple formula and encouraged Wikipedians to use it. But it was User Tim Starling that made it work quickly enough to gain widespread acceptance. It's in over 100,000 biographical articles, I guess, by now. --Ed Poor Talk 14:20, 12 September 2020 (EDT)
