Non-supporting references removed, Career section needs work.
editFrom the Early life and education section I removed the following references which did not seem to support the biographical facts they were attached to. But they might be useful for something else. Mainor's biography was attested by the legislative biography, the first reference in the article. I removed a lot of puffery and vast overlinking. Here are the removed refs:
- Murphy, Patricia; Bluestein, Greg; Mitchell, Tia. "The Jolt: Democrats threaten primary against centrist Atlanta lawmaker". Political Insider (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution). Retrieved 2023-06-16.
- Catts, Everett (2019-03-11). "Nine candidates contending for District 3 Atlanta City Council seat". Marietta Daily Journal. Retrieved 2023-06-16.
- Chidi, George (2021-05-19). "The Mesha Mainor Interview". The Atlanta Objective with George Chidi. Retrieved 2023-06-16. (This reference required registration to read it.)
The Career section needs work. The section emphasizes what seem to have been brief stints working in DC, and doesn't say much about what seems to be the next 2 decades in the physical therapy area in Atlanta.
