What exactly does it mean, he is the most liberal member of the Mississippi delegation and one of the most liberal ever to represent the state? —Preceding

Good call, Mr. Anonymous editor, and I have removed that line until it can present itself with some good referential backing. You can't make subjective statements about a living politician's biography without serious backup. That line read like a functionally illiterate Michael Steele trying to take a pot shot at someone on the other side. Thank you for pointing it out OVER A YEAR AGO, even if nobody acted. Poor form, indeed!

Along the lines of something Bill Buckley once said, being the most liberal congressman from Mississippi is kinda like being the tallest building in Kansas . . . — Preceding

I never said that CNN is "right biased". I said that that line that you gleaned onto is right-wing bias. Please actually attend to what I said.
The message I posted to your talk page:
Yes, the 2021 CNN source says
"invalidates". The 2005 CNN source
is superior for content about the 2004 election. It includes the text, The move was not designed to overturn Bush's re-election, said Ohio Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones and California Sen. Barbara Boxer, who filed the objection. The objecting Democrats, all of whom are House members except Boxer, said they wanted to draw attention to the need for aggressive election reform in the wake of what they said were widespread voter problems. That directly contradicts "invalidates". Let's not go down this road of edit warring, again. –

Given name?
Greetings - The article implies that "Bennie" is the Representative's given name, but does not actually say so. (In the USA, it is frequently a 'nickname' as for Benjamin, Bennet, Benedict, Benito, and the like, but not always.) I am asking for clarification, just to be thorough.
Thank you for your time,
