The stats are incorrectly termed. White, Asian, and Black are races, not ethnicities. Hispanic is the only 'ethnicity' which can be of any race.

Orphaned references in Massachusetts's 8th congressional district

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 Massachusetts's 8th congressional district'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 "Generalelection":

From Massachusetts's 4th congressional district: "Massachusetts Secretary of State Election Results 2014" (PDF). Massachusetts Secretary of State. November 4, 2014. Retrieved December 26, 2014.
From 2014 United States House of Representatives elections in Massachusetts: http://electionstats.state.ma.us/elections/search/year_from:2014/year_to:2014/office_id:5/stage:General

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 ⚡ 17:14, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
