Talk:Elizabeth Ray

Age

According to this site: Elizabeth Ray was born on May 14, 1943, which would have made her 32 or so at the time of the scandal, not "in her twenties." Of, course this article (the original WaPo article that broke the story), claims she was 27 in early 1975. Do you suppose she was subtracting five years from her age in order to improve her chances in Hollywood?--Paul 23:16, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Miss Virginia 1975:

An earlier version of the Wikipedia entry for Elizabeth Ray claimed that she was "Miss Virginia 1975," which to most readers would reference the Miss America Organization. But the Wikipedia entry for "Miss Virginia" shows that she was not the 1975 titleholder. Also, the Wikipedia entry to "Miss Virginia USA" shows she was not the 1975 titleholder for that contest. Also, her age would have disqualified her from running in either contest in 1975.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Raysmithva (talk • contribs) 05:12, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Sequence of events

The article states that Ray won the Miss Virginia contest in 1975 before she started working on Capitol Hill in 1972. That does not make sense. 74.131.54.117 (talk) 18:44, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Elizabeth Ray is not listed as a winner of the Miss Virginia contest. See missvirginia.org, list of past winners.-- Toddy1 (talk) 06:36, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
