Golden is likely to be re-elected

[edit]

See [story](https://observer-me.com/2024/11/09/news/why-jared-goldens-win-over-austin-theriault-will-survive-ranked-choice-voting/) on the contest with Theriault. Charles Stewart (talk) 09:19, 11 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

"A Democrat who primarily votes with Republicans"

[edit]

This is not a neutral wording or a fair paraphrase of the sources. Just because Golden voted with Republicans 64% of the time doesn't mean he caucuses with them. When Republicans have a majority in the House, voting with them more often than not, but still 50-50ish, is very different than a Republican who would vote probably 99% of the time with Trump, or maybe 75%, but probably not. Probably they all cluster in the very high area. The lowest being Fitzpatrick at 70. Golden being the most "moderate" Dem doesn't mean he votes "primarily" with the Republicans, and that wording is in neither source. The sources DO say, Rep. Jared Golden, who occupies the second-reddest seat currently held by a Democrat, was the only one to vote with Biden less than half the time. [in 2023]... the median Democrat from 2021-2022 voted with Biden 100 percent of the time, and even the member who agreed with him least often (once again, Golden) still did so 88 percent of the time, more than the 25 members (including himself) with the lowest scores in 2023. The other source doesn't mention Golden by name, so it is just reading into a chart, which is in my view, borderline interpretation of data beyond what is supportable by a source (i.e., OR) Andre🚐 00:10, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I deleted it. It seems like something easily misconstrued to overrepresent a viewpoint on Golden.  Muboshgu (talk) 00:14, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
That works too, I didn't want to remove it twice, so I removed it once, and then I modified it and left that note, but I agree with its removal. Andre🚐 00:16, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
