- Done, although added in 2010, which you missed. Number 57 19:57, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
- I didn’t include it because it’s already mentioned on the 2010 Senate elections page which is listed above. I request that it be removed.
- Because it was a special election held on a different date to the main elections, I think the listing in the special row is correct. Number 57 16:43, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
- The 1996 United States Senate special election in Oregon, 1992 United States Senate special election in North Dakota, 1972 United States Senate special election in Vermont, 1960 United States Senate special election in North Dakota, and 1934 United States Senate special election in Vermont were held on different dates than the main elections, but they aren’t included in the list. The election pages list all those held within that year, even the ones that didn’t happen in November, so posting them separately seems redundant.
- They can be added to the list of special elections too. I don't understand the logic behind omitting articles on special elections from the special election row. There is no-indication that it is limited to off-year special elections. Number 57 17:46, 24 July 2020 (UTC)

I request that 2010 United States Senate special election in Massachusetts be removed from the list per the points I made in the previous discussion. 2601:241:300:B610:71A2:6391:464A:DBB4 (talk) 04:07, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- I don't think this should be done, as per my points in the section above. I don't think this is unnecessary clutter. Number 57 11:51, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
- It already be on the 2010 United States Senate elections page was the reason why I didn't include it in my original request. As mentioned it seems inconsistent to include one such example when others are excluded. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:241:300:B610:2CEE:E19E:E71F:BDD5 (talk) 04:58, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
- The reason why I didn't include it in my request was because it is already listed on this table on 2010 United States Senate elections:

- Since the section heading was changed to "Odd-year special elections", please remove the 2010 Massachusetts election as it did not take place in an odd year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.110.217.186 (talk • contribs) 19 September 2020 (UTC)
- Comment By definition, the 2010 Massachusetts special election should be removed from a row that is entitled "odd-year" elections, since 2010 is not an odd-year.--Goldsztajn (talk) 00:49, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
