Talk:Grace Meng

Active 'cleaning' of her reputation?

Looks like there's been systematic cleanup of Grace Meng's past. Looking at past revision histories over time I see all the negative aspects being severely downplayed and then nullified into meaningless sentences. For example, Grace Meng ran her father's campaign which had much more than irregularities, there was voter fraud. His employees who worked at his Flushing book store were listed as active voters and wrote that they lived at his bookstore. There was also a few voters from the Flushing main parking lot. In the end there were almost a hundred votes that were thrown out. Secondly, regarding the residency status in the 2006 election, Grace Meng withdrew her campaign after it was found out that Grace Meng didn't live in Flushing at the time. This has not been changed to "Subsequently her district residency issues were resolved" which is beyond misleading. I get that there will be temptation to severely downplay what happened by her constituents or perhaps her office, but this article seems not only disinterested, but outright covering up controversies. These changes should be reverted back to what they were. --36.225.43.2 (talk) 21:37, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

5th or 6th Congressional District?

AFAIK Assemblywoman Grace Meng is the successor of Rep. Gary S. Ackermann who is serving NY's 5th congressional district. Marxolang (talk) 02:23, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

"Chinese Americans" in New York City

Grace Meng is not Chinese; rather, she is Taiwanese. People of Taiwanese descent are different from people of Chinese descent. Therefore, I have removed the link in "See Also" directing viewers of Grace's wiki page to a list of Chinese Americans in New York City. If anyone disagrees, please respond to this post. Tzepeng (talk) 23:03, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Hm? Except for a minority of indigenous people, and non-Chinese expats such as Korean or American businessmen, all Taiwanese people are Chinese. They are culturally and ethnically Chinese and their government and are citizens of a government that identifies itself as China.
