I added some links to reports done by the CRS on veto overrides. They are almost identical since Bush hasn't used the veto yet, but from different sources. Open CRS is a good repository, and it seems a bit sad that this taxpayer funded research isn't available straight from the original source. --Chris Heath 04:30, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite

This page is badly in need of a re-write and some attention. I'll do what I can with my job but we might need to call in some others. JasonCNJ (talk) 21:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Globalize

Just to mention, a number of political systems feature a veto override. For instance, in Niger a Presidential veto may be overridden at %50 +1. This article needs the attention of a political scientist. T L Miles (talk) 03:12, 12 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bad article, no treat

This form of Democracy is only found in the United States. The 2/3 majority vote of is unique to the House of Representatives and Senate.

This statement is flagrantly wrong, and is contradicted by information in the veto article itself, which incidentally supersedes this article in every way. Delete this article. Even if it were not wrong it would be superfluous. --70.131.112.177 (talk) 22:01, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
