"Far-right" county board[edit]

Given the new slate of the board of commissioners, this article has seen a lot of edits recently. Specifically, there have been edits made regarding "far-right" vs. "reportedly far-right" (or similar verbiage), in terms of describing the new county board. Personally, the latter usage seems more consistent with a neutral point of view, but I'm curious to hear other's opinions. LimonesMI (talk) 20:24, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It is important to attribute to who is describing the board as "far-right" and more recent edits have clarified this.--WMrapids (talk) 19:16, 7 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If that's the popular designation, fine - but it's gratuitous within the article to keep referring to it as the far-right county. It's designated in the opening paragraph, the claim is made, it's sourced, that's one argument. Sprinkling the phrase throughout the rest of the article is unnecessary. I removed the third instance of 'far right' because it wasn't needed. Benwetmore (talk) 19:42, 29 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
