Overall: I added a short description but other than that, everything looks good. You might consider adding the primary results (even if he was unopposed, it can be useful to see vote totals), but that's not important enough to hold back the nomination. Good, interesting article!

• @Theleekycauldron: You're right, I think I may have misread something in the 1819 News article. I've provided an ALT1 nomination. Kafoxe (talk) 02:49, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
