A fact from this article was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the On this day section on December 20, 2008.

Introduction

No where in this article on South Carolina does it include the actual vote count for leaving the Union in 1860. I think this is a critical piece of information and should be included.

South Carolina became the first state to vote in favor of secession from the Union on December 20, 1860 [add: by a vote count of 169-0.]

Proposed revision would look like: South Carolina became the first state to vote in favor of secession from the Union on December 20, 1860, by a vote count of 169-0.

Loading graph?

Does anyone know what's up with the demographic graph that just has the loading symbol and no movement? Is it a broken plugin or something? Muttnick (talk) 18:01, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
