– The current titles are confusing, since it is not clear whether they are referring to positions at the state or federal level. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 02:38, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose the latter. William Alden Smith was also a U.S. senator. O.N.R. ^(talk) 04:44, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose and instead Move to Mike Thompson (Kansas politician, born 1957) and William Smith (South Carolina politician, born 1762) (and William Smith (South Carolina representative) to William Smith (South Carolina politician, born 1751)), which would be far more usual. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:27, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No objection here. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 15:11, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
