Unsupported statement

Despite being from a very conservative state Moran has made financial contributions to The Planned Parenthood Federation of America and has made Pro-Choice comments and statements at Republican Party Dinners and Fundraisers.

This needs a cite. What "pro-choice comments and statements" has he made? Links and quotes would be good. --Mr. Billion 08:17, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

This article dosn't sound like it's unbiased, the second paragraph sounds like a puff piece, copy and pasted from a congressional biography. -Rtaycher1987

I looked at the "About Jerry" page of his official web page (http://www.jerrymoran.house.gov/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=37&Itemid=102) and almost every statement made is shown here. Merely because they are in a different order doesn't make it new or different. Also, it is completely biased, because the Congressman wants to sound good, not unbiased truth. --Sgaulisl —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.147.235.164 (talk) 13:38, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

If someone, e.g., a summer intern, wants to improve the senator's page, there's nothing wrong with that. However, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a soapbox or means of promotion. See WP:NOT. Wikipedians are encouraged to disclose conflicts. Deleting truthful but unfavorable material, especially when sourced, should be avoided without explanation. See WP:CONFLICT; see also WP:AB. Sources should mostly be secondary to ensure impartiality and importance. See WP:PRIMARY. If you have questions, we are here to help. --Joe Jarvis (talk) 02:17, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Jerry Moran

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Jerry Moran's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Politico":

From Michael Bennet: "Colorado Primary Results". Politico. August 10, 2010. Retrieved August 11, 2010.
From Kirsten Gillibrand: "New York, Class I Special Election Senate Primary Results". Politico. September 14, 2010. Retrieved September 14, 2010.
From 2010 United States Senate election in Kansas: "Kansas Primary results". Politico. August 3, 2010. Retrieved August 3, 2010.
From Bernie Sanders: Kruse, Michael (July 9, 2015). "Bernie Sanders Has a Secret: Vermont, his son and the hungry early years that made him the surging socialist he is today". Politico. Retrieved July 18, 2015. After he graduated from James Madison High School in 1959, he went to Brooklyn College for a year before transferring to the University of Chicago, where he joined the Congress of Racial Equality, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the Student Peace Union, and the Young People's Socialist League.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 04:51, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

New lead image

Following suit with Dick Durbin and Bernie Sanders, these outdated official portraits from a decade ago should be replaced with recent images. Here's some potential replacements and let's vote as to whether we should change the image. I personally prefer options B and C (more of B). --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 00:54, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Option A (current; 2011)
Option B (2017)
Option C (2018)
Option D (2020)
Option E (2020)
