A profile of the Democratic nominee in the special election in Ohio on August 2 that attracted national attention. Hackett, a lawyer who served in Iraq, ran a very strong campaign in a historically Republican district. Article has photos, maps, references. I'd really like to see this make featured status. It needs a good proofreading to start--I've looked at it so much, my eyes have glazed over and I know I'm not seeing problems. I am also submitting for peer review my article on the winning candidate, Jean Schmidt. (See Wikipedia:Peer review/Jean Schmidt/archive1 for that.) PedanticallySpeaking 19:16, August 17, 2005 (UTC)
