What is a JFK Republican?

Latest comment: 2 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

This is mentioned in her opponents in the election. No article about it and Google brings up nothing. 156.209.224.208 (talk) 09:37, 4 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Its just what that particular candidate listed as his party on the ballot. He said something along the lines of “jfk’s values alight best with the Republican Party of today.” 50.34.203.60 (talk) 19:22, 28 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Maybe, we could mention that Murray was 'second' in the presidential line of succession, from January 3 to 7, 2023? GoodDay (talk) 09:01, 7 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

template formatting, President Pro Tempore?

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

for Patrick Leahy and Robert Byrd, President pro Tempore comes after their office as senator, but in this page, it comes before?
