- ... that Wahsayah Whitebird is the only known member of the Communist Party of the United States serving as an elected official? Source: "In doing so, in 2019, this means he has become the only openly Communist elected official in the English-speaking world." [1]
- ALT1:... that Wahsayah Whitebird's Communist Party membership was not publicly known until after he was elected? Source: "'They never asked' said Wahsayah Whitebird ... 'When they did ask, after the election, I said right away I was and showed them my Party identification'" [2]

- Article is new and long enough. QPQ has been completed. No copyvio or close paraphrasing on Earwigs. Hooks are cited, interesting, and short enough for DYK. Preference is for ALT0; the fact in the ALT0 source (e.g. that he is the only openly communist elected official in the English-speaking world) would also make a very interesting hook.
