... that Wyoming state representative Bob Nicholas is state senator Phil Nicholas's brother?

Dull hook. A lot of people have siblings; brothers serving in different chambers of the same legislative body isn't unusual. Daniel Case (talk) 20:24, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

What about "... that Wyoming state representative Bob Nicholas owned a paintbrush manufacturer? SL93 (talk) 21:39, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

That looks like the best we can get from this article. Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:59, 22 December 2011 (UTC)

How about:
ALT2: ... that Wyoming state representative Bob Nicholas lost his first run for his seat with 48% of the vote? Yoninah (talk) 23:24, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

Hmm... I guess that is acceptable, to show it was a close vote. Not especially striking, but... Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:30, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

ALT3: ... that Wyoming has a Nicholas in the House and a Nicholas in the Senate? Yoninah (talk) 22:53, 26 December 2011 (UTC)

This nomination has been hanging around rather a long time. Length of article, date or creation, sources and any of the hooks are fine. I would go for ALT3 or the original hook. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:13, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
