80 Senate seats?

The total number of senate seats listed here is 80. Shouldn't it be 76? -- Chuq 05:57, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)

The complication is caused by the Territory Senators. I will try to express it more clearly. Adam 06:05, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Can this?

Can this article remain on the page? --Celco85Celco85 (talk) 11:39, 12 March 2021 (UTC) https://theconversation.com/issues-that-swung-elections-tampa-and-the-national-security-election-of-2001-115143[reply]

Two conditions - should be formatted correctly which it was not and the reason for its inclusion should be shown clearly which again it was not. Hence it was deleted. How many times have we now suggested that you should format references correctly?Fleet Lists (talk) 04:45, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have since again read the reference and I believe it is a good one but it must meet the two criteria above for it to be included in the article so that it does not reduce the quality of the article.Fleet Lists (talk) 05:08, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
