Image for the Vice President - Cropped or No?

Should the image for JD Vance be the uncropped or cropped version? I personally believe that it should be the uncropped version, because the uncropped version was previously used for Vice President Harris. WIKIPEDA (yes i meant to misspell it) (talk) 17:16, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I say cropped by using this version of the image here:

Veeps who haven't or never did cast tie-breaker votes

Citation or not, the # of veeps who didn't cast a tie-breaking is (not including Vance) 12. GoodDay (talk) 21:36, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You are correct. The existing citation is not. Drdpw (talk) 21:41, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Timeline

In the "Timeline" section of this article JD Vance is marked in blue implying he's a Democrat even though on his main article it's stated that he is a Republican so shouldn't he be mark in red? 2001:2042:7C7E:3200:79D1:93CC:4BFA:37C3 (talk) 16:20, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The coding for his row in the graphical TL template is set to 'red' for Republican. The problem is that he has been in office for only a couple of months, and so the red bar does not yet show up. It will ultimately be visible by the end of 2025. Drdpw (talk) 17:41, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, but shouldn't that be stated as a disclaimer at the top of the section next to the end of the first sentence so people don't think it's intentionally inaccurate? 2001:2042:7C7E:3200:79D1:93CC:4BFA:37C3 (talk) 17:51, 24 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
