The contentious topics procedure applies to this page. This page is related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, which has been designated as a contentious topic.
Several editors are removing content, including RS content, that factually describes Lake's positions. In particular, her political views have been edited in order to remove RS citations with factual information on her positions that might make her seem unsympathetic politically. As an example, on LGBTQ issues, I added multiple RS sources, reliable secondary sources that included primary source evidence to back up their reporting, one of which is PolitiFact to show that the other RS have been fact-checked, showing her statements on drag queen events and her attendance at drag queen events, and also that Log Cabin Republicans, a LGBTQ Republican PAC, endorsed her. While the Log Cabin endorsement remained in the article, an editor removed the fact that Lake has attended drag events. That could give the appearance that an editor favors the Republican perspective. I am certain there have been edits that favored a Democratic perspective, and needed to be changed, and so I think it should be pointed out that this article has that issue.

At what point should Lake be described as a perennial candidate? A perennial candidate is described by Wikipedia as "A perennial candidate is a political candidate who frequently runs for elected office and rarely, if ever, wins.". Sounds accurate for Mrs. Lake.
