If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.

This page is about a politician who is running for office or has recently run for office, is in office and campaigning for re-election, or is involved in some current political conflict or controversy.

In one recent example, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who is under federal and state investigation for mishandling the COVID-19 pandemic and growing list of scandals, is described on his Wikipedia page in a positive light while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a potential GOP frontrunner for the 2024 presidential election, is painted as a partisan hack who ignored the science.

Uh, is the picture ever so slightly out of focus, or is that just me? Is there a better photo of Cuomo? Turini2 (talk) 16:09, 28 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

I was going to add the "Category:American people of Italian descent" to this article, but I was unable to do so because it appears to be locked from editing. Please fix this ridiculous situation! ~2025-31208-44 (talk) 06:07, 14 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
