From Benhard Upsom (talk) 20:17, 14 June 2011 (UTC)Benhard UpsomBenhard Upsom (talk) 20:17, 14 June 2011 (UTC)First of all, the aforementioned article should be E. Jacob Crull. What is given is fact unless the moron who flagged this as a hoax doesn't believe the New York Times. Also the individual who questioned its significance probably does not realise the importance of Jeannette Rankin's election to the U.S. Copngress (first woman to do so); Crull was her major rival in a state which elects only one person to the U.S. House of Representatives whereas it elects two U.S. senators. Lastly, Crull's death, as reported in the New York Times, was unusual and the whole combination makes him a "political oddity." Also check the politicians graveyard site.

I hope that someone sees and reads the foregoing.
