Nicholas Hensley interview

SEP 4TH, 2:49AM William Saturn

Was there a separate vote to make Michael Steinberg the party's VP nominee?

SEP 4TH, 9:28AM Nicholas Hensley

No the nominee picks his/her VP

SEP 5TH, 2:00AM William Saturn

was that recently added to the bylaws?

SEP 5TH, 8:30AM Nicholas Hensley

No, it was always that way in 2012 too.

David Collison interview

TUE 1:13AM William Saturn:

When were the bylaws of the Reform Party amended to allow the presidential nominee alone to decide the party's vice presidential nominee?

TUE 7:29AM David Collison:

They were not. However we opted to vote for a "slate" this round. But that only applies to states where our affiliates have ballot access. We can't force the candidate to place the same VP on the ballot in states where they run as an independent, for example.

Progress

Completed all but the summary. On first-pass source-check, have processed all sources but the feed. --Pi zero (talk) 05:31, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Review of revision 4250366 [Passed]

Revision 4250366 of this article has been reviewed by Pi zero (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 22:02, 23 September 2016 (UTC). Copyright: Passed Newsworthiness: Passed Verifiability: Passed NPOV: Passed Style: Passed Comments by reviewer: Due seemingly to some sort of data format compatibility problem, my laptop was unable to read the list of Politics1 stuff that was sent to scoop; I did access it, by borrowing use of someone else's desktop. From the transcripts provided, the verification of Rocky de la Fuente's running mate was weak; I did a sanity check on the point. Didn't find anything at all about Steins' and Johnson's ballot access; it could have been staring me in the face, somewhere, but if so I completely missed it. Didn't find much detail about the foreign aspect of the Clinton Foundation accusations. The reviewed revision should automatically have been edited by removing {{Review}} and adding {{Publish}} at the bottom, and the edit sighted; if this did not happen, it may be done manually by a reviewer.
