The second set of positions don't quite line up on my window. Is that a browser issue, or is the template slightly uneven? — Scouter Sig 14:19, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
When David Paterson, who was the Lieutenant Governor, succeeded to the governorship of New York, the position of Lieutenant Governor was left vacant. It will not be filled until the results of the next gubernatorial election take effect. Pursuant to Article IV, Section 6 of the New York State Constitution, Joseph Bruno, as "temporary president of the senate", is currently performing the duties of Lieutenant Governor, except that if the governorship is vacated he will only "act as governor" (i.e., be Acting Governor) pending a special election. For these reasons and for the sake of clarity, I have edited the template to read that the office of Lieutenant Governor is "vacant". SMP0328. ( talk) 01:34, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Because it is unclear who runs the New York State Senate, I have changed the template to read Disputed regarding the Majority Leader and Minority Leader of the State Senate. When this dispute is resolved, the appropriate names can be placed in those parts of the template. SMP0328. ( talk) 19:41, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
John L. Sampson is no longer the Senate minority leader; Andrea Stewart-Cousins is. 74.69.11.229 ( talk) 14:22, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
