Bernard Holliday was nominated for deletion. The discussion was closed on 10 April 2012 with a consensus to merge. Its contents were merged into 2012 United States House of Representatives elections in North Carolina. The original page is now a redirect to this page. For the contribution history and old versions of the redirected article, please see its history; for its talk page, see here.

This is a historical article, not a daily tally sheet.
If someone drops out or loses, do not erase them; rather, refer to them as having run and lost, dropped out, etc.

Clean up[edit]

This article is in need of serious clean-up efforts.

I will be adding results tables for each election. I also propose that the sections be rewritten for clarity and to reflect that the elections are (more or less) over. Historical references are fine to the extent that they remain notable, but at present this sort of reads like a play by play and I'm not sure that adds any value to the finished product.

We should also consider either moving the campaign websites links to a external links section or deleting them altogether. They're not really relevant any longer and the majority of them will probably be dead links soon. Elcid89 (talk) 15:28, 13 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in 2012 United States House of Representatives elections in North Carolina[edit]

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 2012 United States House of Representatives elections in North Carolina'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.

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 ⚡ 09:11, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
