NPOV and attributive phrasing edit

I've removed two paragraphs on Morfeld's legislative agenda and political positions. Unfortunately, these tended to present opinions and assertions (presumably Morfeld's) as factual. The material needs a serious rewrite, to make a clear distinction between established facts, opinions, and assertions re. motives. I will get to this when time allows; for now, however, Wikipedia's policy of neutral point of view requires me to remove this material. — Ammodramus (talk) 14:22, 10 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

I've again removed these paragraphs, and will try to rewrite them for NPOV as soon as possible. For now, though, they're accepting Morfeld's and others' assertions as factual. For instance, "strenghtening education" and "ensuring quality of life and stability for seniors" might be disputed by someone whose positions differ from Morfeld's. "Providing a strong voice for working Nebraskans" is meaningless, unless you can find a politician who declares that they're against working Nebraskans; if it refers to a particular stance on organized labor, minimum wage, or mandated employee benefits, we should say so explicitly. "A medical amnesty law that helps prevent alcohol overdoses" is assuming that the law is actually having this effect; NPOV phrasing would be along the lines of "which Morfeld said would help prevent EtOH overdoses" or the like.
Again, I apologize for not being able to rewrite this right away; my time for editing has been sadly limited of late. — Ammodramus (talk) 21:39, 25 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
