Bryan Brinyark
- ... that Bryan Brinyark finished in second place in a primary election to the Alabama House of Representatives just 15 votes behind his leading opponent, but later won a runoff election? Source: Alabama Daily News: "With no candidate receiving more than 50% of the vote, the two top-leading Republican candidates – Brinyark and Brad Cox, with Brinyark tailing Cox by just 15 votes – went on to face off in a special primary election runoff, where Brinyark came out victorious."
Created by Kafoxe (talk). Self-nominated at 18:09, 15 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Bryan Brinyark; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Article is new and long enough (created today, RPS 2596), hook is interesting and cited; my only issue with it is the use of the word "rebounded", which may imply commentary on the part of the writer as that word is not present in the sources (so far as I can tell). Earwig looks fine; the sentence Brinyark has five adult children and is a member of the Northport Church of Christ
is near-identical to the source, which differs only in that it omits "the", so I would recommend rewording that. QPQ has been provided. Just the hook wording and that last sentence to fix and we should be good. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 18:52, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
