He's run in three elections (including the current gubernatorial election) over the last 12 years. Considering the numerous elections that have taken place over that timespan (both federal and state), three hardly seems "perennial" to me. Woko Sapien (talk) 18:57, 26 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

I think we should settle the issue of whether to have "Ned" included in the lede section. I know it's been omitted before because of the Manual of Style, but I feel like that really only applies to cases where the nickname is obvious (i.e. Tommy = Thomas, Nick = Nicholas, Kathy = Katherine, etc.).
@Muboshgu: That's fair enough. Still, random editors have occasionally tried to add his nickname to the opening sentence in the past (I'm certain in good faith). I've added a separate sentence to the lede with a source that should hopefully settle the issue for good. Woko Sapien (talk) 18:35, 10 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Under the section "early political career", the claim "During his term as chair, the state saw its unfunded liabilities reduced and pension fund performance improved" the reference (27) does not mention anything to backup this statement. Request edit to remove that statement without factual reference. Jonshef (talk) 03:01, 3 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
I went ahead and removed the unfounded claim (seemed like original research). I've also added an additional source to confirm the existing information there. --Woko Sapien (talk) 17:41, 3 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
