PoliticsIsExciting

Hello!

 

Welcome to my page! If I make any mistakes, please let me know on my talk page, so I can learn for the future. The main topics I enjoy editing/writing about are politics and history. I also like editing pages about higher learning institutions as well. You'll see me on New Jersey related pages, Princeton related pages, and Mississippi pages; I also work on cleanup for citations and other issues occasionally.

I also create election maps, mainly for Mississippi elections.
