== Harris picture == |
|||
== Dean Phillips should be in the infobox == |
|||
I think the picture of Harris should be changed from her official vice-presidential portrait to a more recent one since in the [[2024 Democratic Party presidential primaries|Democratic 2024]], [[2020 Democratic Party presidential primaries|2020]], [[2016 Democratic Party presidential primaries|2016]], [[2024 Republican Party presidential primaries|Republican 2024]], [[2020 Republican Party presidential primaries|2020]], [[2016 Republican Party presidential primaries|2016]], [[2012 Republican Party presidential primaries|2012 primaries articles]] the vast majority of pictures used for candidates, with the notable exception of candidates who are incumbent presidents, are ones taken during or close in time to the primaries instead of official portraits. Harris is not the incumbent president, so I think a more recent image should be used for her [[User:Punker85|Punker85]] ([[User talk:Punker85|talk]]) 22:41, 25 July 2024 (UTC) |

The delegate results of Ohio have now been tabulated, Dean Phillips has received three. That ties him with Jason Palmer. Going via precedent, this means he should be in the infobox. In the recent history of incumbent Presidents' primary elections (Trump '20, Obama '12, Bush '04, Clinton '96, Bush '92, etc), there is not one example of the silver medalist candidate not being included in the infobox. Phillips not only got the second-most (tied) amount of delegates amongst the candidates, but also has second place in the PV (3.5%). He should be in the infobox. Thoughts? [[User:RickStrate2029|RickStrate2029]] ([[User talk:RickStrate2029|talk]]) 01:24, 31 March 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:The previous precedent has been to only include people if they (1) win a contest, (2) get 5% of the vote, or (3) get 5% of the delegates. Additionally, second place gets added if no other candidate meets the above requirements. This discussion is already occurring in the thread directly above this - I suggest we keep all discussion in one thread to avoid talk page bloat.

::Not sure why Jason Palmer qualifies. That's the equivalent of adding Faith Spotted Eagle because she won an electoral vote. If he was that curiously aligned with reader's interest, they'd click on the American Samoa contest. At least Dean got 3% of the vote.

:But she is the incumbent VP. Her portrait was taken at the same time as Biden's was and in my opinion, her appearance didn't change dramatically for it to warrant an 'updated' picture. At this point, if we're going to change Kamala's pic, we should do the same for Joe or if we're keeping Joe's portrait, I can't see a valid reason as to why Kamala's shouldn't be kept. I was also opposed to changing Trump's portrait on the 2024 US election article, but the consensus was that the pic was seven years out dated and that his appearance allegedly changed. Three years (year of Kamala's pic) is not a long time IMO for there to be a drastic change in appearance to warrant a change in picture.

There have been several discussions on the matter which are hard to follow. Hopefully a final centralized discussion will help to determine a true consensus. '''Should Dean Phillips be included in the infobox?''' [[User:Esolo5002|Esolo5002]] ([[User talk:Esolo5002|talk]]) 21:31, 23 May 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Yes'''. The second place real person should always be included in my opinion. [[User:KittyTeam|KittyTeam]] ([[User talk:KittyTeam|talk]]) 21:31, 24 May 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:'''No.''' There should only be one second-place person in the infobox, and Palmer takes priority as he won a statewide contest. [[User:Longestview|Longestview]] ([[User talk:Longestview|talk]]) 23:07, 24 May 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:'''No.''' There was an RFC in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Elections_and_Referendums/Archive_12#RfC_on_5%_threshold 2017] and also in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Elections_and_Referendums/Archive_16#RfC_on_Infoboxes:_Should_there_always_be_two_candidates? 2020] where these issues were discussed and where criteria for infobox inclusion was established. Phillips does not meet the current criteria. We should not deviate from these decisions without another formal RFC. [[User:Michelangelo1992|Michelangelo1992]] ([[User talk:Michelangelo1992|talk]]) 23:13, 25 May 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Yes.''' The second place person's inclusion in the infobox for presidential primaries is clear precedent; there seems to be an attempt to limit the infobox to three people, this is inherently limiting as there is a person who won the second-most amount of contests (1) and a different person who won the second-most amount of delegates (4). They both warrant inclusion. [[User:RickStrate2029|RickStrate2029]] ([[User talk:RickStrate2029|talk]]) 18:19, 28 May 2024 (UTC) |
|||
::Y'know, I think a Better question should be "What should the criteria for inclusion in this articles infobox be?:" rather than just "DeAn PHIlliPs InClusion sUrvRy",but until then, I'll go for '''Yes.''' [[User:InterDoesWiki|InterDoesWiki]] ([[User talk:InterDoesWiki|talk]]) 22:38, 28 May 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Yes'''. Phillips has won delegates. With such a low number of candidates who have actually done so, it makes both Phillips and Palmer notable enough over every other minor candidate. [[User:Yeoutie|Yeoutie]] ([[User talk:Yeoutie|talk]]) 03:12, 2 June 2024 (UTC) |
|||
:'''Yes''', he should be there since he is the second candidate with more delegates (one above Palmer) and clearly has gotten much more media attention than Palmer as the second place in the Democratic primaries.

|||
:'''Yes.''' He is the second place human in terms of both popular vote and delegate count. Palmer should still remain seeing as he won a contest, but there is no clear reason to include Palmer without including Phillips as well.

in the current map, the shade of purple and blue are a tad too similar; id like to suggest we change his dark purple to something more distinct to Pres. Biden's dark blue, something like yellow or orange. [[User:Tildin|Tildin]] ([[User talk:Tildin|talk]]) 12:20, 25 June 2024 (UTC) |

== If Joe Biden is not the nominee == |
|||
Yes, I know [[WP:CRYSTALBALL]] but considering that there is a real possibility that Biden is not the Democratic nominee, I figured I'd post this so there is a plan in place in case someone else (say, Kamala Harris) is the nominee. Since, as far as I know, neither party has nominated someone so unexpectedly in the era of national primaries, I am using the precedent of the [[1968 Democratic Party presidential primaries]] page, where the eventual nominee was Hubert Humphrey, who actually came in fifth in the delegate count and sixth in the popular vote in the primaries. In that infobox, Humphrey is shown after the two leading primary candidates. Based on that, I am proposing having Harris in the last position on the infobox but having her name be bolded. |
|||
Of course, [[WP:CRYSTALBALL]] so we cannot assume Kamala Harris will be the nominee. If it's someone else, we can simply change the photo, name, and vote total. |
|||
I looked through all state results very quickly. More research might find more information. This was the number of write-ins for Harris that I found: Vermont: 23, Pennsylvania: 10 [https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/decision-2024/thousands-of-philly-democrats-wrote-in-names-other-than-biden-during-pa-primary-data-shows/3859764/] |
|||
Total: 33 |
|||
There's probably an argument to be made that, whether or not Joe Biden is the nominee, he has won the primaries in the sense that he has the most pledged delegates (even if they do not ultimately vote for him) |

This is a very small detail, but what color should Kamala Harris be in the infobox?

I don't think she should be navy like Biden, just to differentiate between the two. I think a dark scarlet or teal could contrast nicely. Here's my proposal: |

This candidate won Loving County over Biden in the Texas 2024 Democratic Primary before withdrawing from the race and endorsing Jason Palmer. Frankie Lozada had the only other county victory by a candidate over Biden alongside Dean Philips' victories. Since he won a county in the primary Lozada is featured on this page's results section map. Additionally, Lozada's name is on this page's 'Initial pledged delegate allocation' and 'First-place results by county' map legends. People visiting this page may think it is odd that Lozada's name is included on the results page but not included as a candidate in the other candidates that withdrew during the primaries section.

::The issue I have with that color is that it is too close to the orange used for Dean Phillips and could be confusing.

Harris had 23 write in votes in the Vermont primary. Doesn't that technically mean she has at least 23 and not 0 votes? [[User:Lough Swilly|Lough Swilly]] ([[User talk:Lough Swilly|talk]]) 05:45, 19 September 2024 (UTC) |

Is there a difference between the two groups based on pre-/post-Biden withdrawing, or is it just a redundancy that should be merged into one section?

Harris picture
[edit]I think the picture of Harris should be changed from her official vice-presidential portrait to a more recent one since in the Democratic 2024, 2020, 2016, Republican 2024, 2020, 2016, 2012 primaries articles the vast majority of pictures used for candidates, with the notable exception of candidates who are incumbent presidents, are ones taken during or close in time to the primaries instead of official portraits. Harris is not the incumbent president, so I think a more recent image should be used for her Punker85 (talk) 22:41, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- But she is the incumbent VP. Her portrait was taken at the same time as Biden's was and in my opinion, her appearance didn't change dramatically for it to warrant an 'updated' picture. At this point, if we're going to change Kamala's pic, we should do the same for Joe or if we're keeping Joe's portrait, I can't see a valid reason as to why Kamala's shouldn't be kept. I was also opposed to changing Trump's portrait on the 2024 US election article, but the consensus was that the pic was seven years out dated and that his appearance allegedly changed. Three years (year of Kamala's pic) is not a long time IMO for there to be a drastic change in appearance to warrant a change in picture. TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 05:34, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- Harris didn’t participate in the primaries, therefore she shouldn’t be listed AT ALL. 64.18.11.14 (talk) 11:55, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
Williamson in infobox
[edit]I believe that even though an earlier consensus agreed the second-place human candidate should be on the infobox, Williamson doesn’t fit the criteria. As she’s received no pledged delegates, or support besides stating that she’s challenging Harris Expoe34 (talk) 02:22, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- Williamson is in the convention nomination section of the infobox, not in the section about the primaries. So, I think the criteria for inclusion in the infobox shouldn't apply for the convention section since the convention isn't really a part of the primaries and I think all declared major candidates should instead be included in the convention section Punker85 (talk) 20:05, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- Not everyone who ran in the primaries is running in the convention, so that would be unnecessary. David O. Johnson (talk) 21:41, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- True and I think I badly expressed myself. What I wanted to say is that I think declared major candidates who are still running in the race should be included in the convention nomination section of the infobox. So like how candidates were included in the infoboxes of state primaries/caucuses articles for the 2024 Republican and Democratic primaries before the results were in Punker85 (talk) 01:39, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Not everyone who ran in the primaries is running in the convention, so that would be unnecessary. David O. Johnson (talk) 21:41, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- If Kamala is the only one running, the virtual vote will be held as early August 1. [3].
- We'll find out what's going on eventually.David O. Johnson (talk) 02:24, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Harris filed according to the FEC: [4]
- As for Williamson, she amended her statement of candidacy on July 8: [5] Punker85 (talk) 17:22, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- We'll find out what's going on eventually.David O. Johnson (talk) 02:24, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
- Punker85, the FEC filing has no bearing on the virtual roll call process, which is separate.
- As I mentioned earlier, it seems that Harris filed for it (per The Hill article), but it's unclear if Williamson did the same. David O. Johnson (talk) 18:35, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- Ah, OK, I misunderstood what you said earlier Punker85 (talk) 22:46, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- As I mentioned earlier, it seems that Harris filed for it (per The Hill article), but it's unclear if Williamson did the same. David O. Johnson (talk) 18:35, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
- The results of the roll call vote are supposed to be finalized at 6pm ET today. RickStrate2029 (talk) 18:21, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
Inclusion of Frankie Lozada in the Other Candidates Section
[edit]Should we add Frankie Lozada next to Cenk Uygur in the other candidate's section?
This candidate won Loving County over Biden in the Texas 2024 Democratic Primary before withdrawing from the race and endorsing Jason Palmer. Frankie Lozada had the only other county victory by a candidate over Biden alongside Dean Philips' victories. Since he won a county in the primary Lozada is featured on this page's results section map. Additionally, Lozada's name is on this page's 'Initial pledged delegate allocation' and 'First-place results by county' map legends. People visiting this page may think it is odd that Lozada's name is included on the results page but not included as a candidate in the other candidates that withdrew during the primaries section. Smobes (talk) 03:06, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- No, because he doesn't have the requirements to be in the other candidates section (which are having a Wikipedia page and being sourced) and I don't think winning one county is noteworthy enough to make an exception for him
- And also, Frankie Lozada shouldn't be in the legend for the initial pledged delegates map since he haven't won a single delegate Punker85 (talk) 20:53, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
Final delegate count
[edit]Anyone have the information on the final delegate count, so we can add that to the article? Prcc27 (talk) 06:18, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
