Langdon

Why was John Langdon's PPT term broken up during the 1st Congress? -- Markles 02:25, 7 November 2005 (UTC) reply

Emeritus?

What's the basis for this? Many other people have continued as senators after serving as President pro tempore. (Including the ones we mention - Byrd was emeritus from 1995 to 2001, and Thurmond from 1987 to 1995, and again from 2001 to 2003.) The same goes for Styles Bridges (1955-1961), Arthur Vandenberg (1949-1951), and Kenneth McKellar (1947-1949), just in the post-WWII era.

Is this a formal title? If so, a citation would be in order. john k ( talk) 18:35, 10 April 2008 (UTC) reply

Time as senator request

I feel it would be useful if the time they were senator was added, next to the time as pro tempore. Thoughts? PrairieKid ( talk) 05:24, 10 February 2013 (UTC) reply

2009-2015

In the Emeritus section ... (which is peculiar, and maybe redundant) someone wrote that no one was eligible to be President Pro Tempore from 2009-2015.

This is false. Citation: the full list of Presidents Pro-Tempore on this page.

& The Senate website just says tradition is to choose the most senior member of the majority party of the Senate.

I suspect the error may have been vandalism, as the information is not hard to find and those terms correlate with the Obama Administration. Dtibsyh ( talk) 04:52, 14 May 2023 (UTC) reply

Should “pro administration” be changed to federalist

No, because there were no organized political parties prior to the 4th Congress. Drdpw ( talk) 15:35, 6 May 2024 (UTC) reply
