Comment: The hook is simple math from two sources. The NY Times article establishes she was VP candidate in 1984. The Daily News article establishes that she was elected to the school board in 1977.
This is my first review, please excuse me for any mistakes I might make. Overall, the hook looks good & interesting, article is new enough, and seems to be neutral and adequately sourced. I'm not familiar with American politics, so I'm assuming "running mate" would mean VP, yes? Should be good to go once your required QPQs are fulfilled, so feel free to let me know when they are with links to the nominations and I'll go forward with approving this. Great job,
Chetsford!

Thanks,
B3251! I'll ping you in a bit once the QPQs are done. (P.S. - your note about "running mate" is a good one; I'm going to edit the article slightly to clarify the ambiguity there.)
