@Jon698: The hook could be better worded as "... that Carlos Baxter was erroneously given 130 votes meant for his brother during the 1860 U.S. House of Representatives election?" would this be alright by you? The article seems in good shape, passes all criterion. Arconning (talk) 06:01, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

@Arconning: That hook is fine. Thank you for the review. Jon698 (talk) 06:07, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

I don't think it would be allowed for the two hooks to run at the same time. Either they will have to run separately, or they will need to have a joint hook. @Jon698: If you're okay with the later, how about:

ALT2 ... that that Carlos Baxter, the son of Vermont state representative William Baxter, was erroneously given 130 votes meant for his brother during the 1860 U.S. House of Representatives election?
