Preselection is an important stepping stone to a political career. I believe it makes sense to describe who the subject was up against and what the process was. MatthewDalhousie (talk) 12:45, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This sounds reasonable to me. HaroldSupermac (talk) 12:47, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Showing that Hastie was selected in a democratic and legitimate way is important. Alex IslaCara (talk) 12:48, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
