Line stating Slotkin lived her early life on a farm in Holly MI is erroneous. It either needs a legitimate citation or removal. Cranbook Schools have no record of her before High School as per their alumni manager. 2601:405:4601:21B0:1979:98E0:C80E:2368 (talk) 16:13, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: There is a citation on the following sentence: [1] You need to provide a citation that would demonstrate that it is false. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:22, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
Line needs citation
edit"Slotkin spent her early life on a farm in Holly, Michigan", from my research is false. 2601:405:4601:21B0:1979:98E0:C80E:2368 (talk) 16:13, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- Citation is on the following sentence.
Slotkin grew up in Holly, where her grandfather set up a family cattle farm to supply his meat business, Hygrade Foods.
[2] What "research"? – Muboshgu (talk) 16:21, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
Conservative or Moderate
editI with my own biases do not find her positions anywhere near former conservative democrats such as joe manchin or Krysten sinema and feel that one or two sources that describe her as conservative instead of moderate have been given undue weightage. I would like to have a discussion on whether the conservative moniker should be kept or not. Nohorizonss (talk) 12:04, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
- There is disagreement between reliable sources, hence "conservative to moderate" andrew.robbins (talk) 13:08, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
