local politicians vs. government officials

We have two categories here, one for Washington, D.C., government officials and one for Washington, D.C., local politicians. This is a little confusing, but it seems to me like the rational interpretation of that would be "local politicians" would be local elected officials while "government officials" would be for federal political appointees. I'm not sure where local appointees (the present Public Service Commission, for example) would go - perhaps lump them in with "local politicians". At the moment I think it isn't consistent. I could go through and rationalize things along those lines, perhaps.Brianyoumans (talk) 03:30, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
