Errata[edit]

The entry in the Criminal Justice entry for Biden on Death Penalty directly contradicts the first sentence here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_positions_of_Joe_Biden#Capital_punishment One of them must be wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.78.150.191 (talk) 00:36, 13 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article is exceeding the technical limitations of Wikipedia[edit]

As a result, templates, near the bottom of the page, including the template that shows references, are not displaying correctly.

See the text at the top of Category:Pages where template include size is exceeded for details.

Since this is likely to grow over time, my recommendation is to split it into sections for large categories, such as Domestic Policy, etc.

See WP:SPLIT for guidance on splitting articles.

Sanders stance on decriminalizing drugs?[edit]

The page states that Sanders is opposed to legalizing and regulating all illicit drugs (section "Criminal justice"), but the source listed says absolutely nothing about Sanders' stance. It discusses Gabbard, Buttigieg, Yang, Biden, and Bloomberg's stances, but not Sanders. Is there a source to verify what the article currently states, or correct it if it's wrong? 72.204.89.200 (talk) 03:40, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Split tables, still active candidates on top[edit]

I suggest to change the tables, placing in top the candidates who are still running. Ambil (talk) 13:14, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
