  • this upper NY state county is about to become quite famous - AP newswire reports 2008 presidential ballots for this county have error, "Barack Osama" instead of "Barack Obama" -- D & R reps both say "sorry" but don't say what the error was in their statements. -- (source: AP article, 10/10/2008) nexus in Seattle/WA

Wondering how to edit this U.S. County Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help.

Mention Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute edit

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is a pretty notable college located in Rensselaer County. I think it should deserve a minor mention, at least in the education section. 2620:0:2820:2001:FD1C:623A:7EDE:655F (talk) 23:52, 25 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

Pronunciation of "Rensselaer" edit

I posted the following comment to the Rensselaer, New York article's Talk section as well: There's no source given (as far as I can see) for where the pronunciation in this article came from. While /rɛnsəˈlɪər/ does appear in online dictionaries such as Random House's, residents of the area appear to favor /'rɛnsələr/. Just sharing an observation. 68.193.131.254 (talk) 21:55, 27 December 2022 (UTC)corphoReply
