November 2014 edit

I am not going to revert your changes, even though they are not accurate until January 12, 2015 when the next legislature is sworn into office. On my talk page, you said "there are no more sessions of the old legislature left to be had." That is not necessarily true. The governor can call a special session at any time. Last year Inslee called a special session only 2 days after the 2013 elections. Votes taken during this special session were by the "old" legislature, including outgoing State Senator Nathan Schlicher. Also, we've seen in recent history where in 2010 Gregoire called a special session in December following the 2010 elections. Despite many seats changing hands during that election, votes were taken by the "old" legislature. Despite those examples of special sessions of the "old" legislature during the interim between the November elections and the January swearings in, I won't edit your changes, since there has been no rumblings of a special session before January.Champ68 (talk) 23:38, 16 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Washington state house and senate edit

Hi. Thanks for leaving an edit on my page. First, while I respect your enthusiasm for editing these pages and your care and attention to detail...on wikipedia nobody "owns" a page. Everyone is allowed to edit any page and the editing is never left to anyone. So in general, you have to be receptive to other edits, even if you have been editing it for one year.

I've made severl changes including updating the diagrams, so when you revert all of the changes you revert other important information. I've fixed the senate results. Please let me know what specific detail is wrong if there is any and we can fix those.

As for the house I reverted that edit as you are right there were errors. Could you let me know what your source is for the official results? I will need to make a new diagram so knowing the official results and which source you use would be very helpful. Regards --Shabidoo | Talk 19:18, 10 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Again, as I said, I don't own the other legislatures. I'm simply updating the information and in some cases making it consistent. You're welcome to make these changes but I will edit it if there are any inconsistencies okay? Could you please give me a website with the source regarding the MCC coalition (please give me the actual link)? If that is the case then when you create the diagram you will have to add one dot that is perhaps light blue to distinguish that one seat as being a democrat who has crossed party lines to sit with the republicans. You should also make that clear in the infoboxes. Try to make the listing of the information consistent with the infobox format on other state senate and house pages. I'm assuming you will do this in the next couple weeks? Cheers --Shabidoo | Talk 19:40, 10 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
Okay I see you've made the changes to the diagram. That's great. However the MCC isn't an actual party, it's a coalition. That should be reflected in the infoboxes. Perhaps something like this.

Governing MCC coalition:

  •   Republican (25)
  •   Independent Democrat (1)

Opposition party

I think the purple was a good idea. Don't forget to sign your posts on talk pages :)

The 30th District edit

First off, media called the race for Conlin two years ago, then we saw a 8.6 point swing in favor of Sawant. A similar swing would put Carol Gregory ahead. I admit this is highly unlikely, but I see no point in jumping the gun. Second, I see no value in making the wiki page knowingly inaccurate. Hickel, if she wins, won't be sworn until a full month from now. I don't believe the subtitle of the page is "Future" members of the State House. Why not have the page reflect reality?Champ68 (talk) 16:00, 4 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
