Isn't Jack Reese the National Security Advisor? Harper's successor is Joe Reese in the info box.Son of a bitch. I knew I'd miss something. Fixed.
Not much needed to be added for Charlie's infobox. His successor as the president's body man, Curtis Carruthers is a show character who carried an MS-paralyzed Bartlet out of Air Force One in an episode—since he doesn't seem to have done anything notable after Bartlet left office, realistically wouldn't get a Wikipedia article of his own and thus his name isn't formatted for a link) and so is his successor as DC shadow senator.

Wait? That bug guy that carried him down the steps of Air Force One in China was the new body-man? For some reason I seriously and always thought it was some big Secret Service Agent.....
Well, there you go. THe things you see several times but assume are soemhting else entirely.
Don't beat yourself up much.That's what I get for doing that infobox after doing a House write-up (Joe Reese is the congressman for California's 50th district).
Fixed.
That's an understandable assumption. That dude was massive.

I thought the same thing for YEARS I cant remember what finally tipped me off it was the New Charlie.
Speaking of Charlie, shouldn't his info box include his work in the Administration after being body man? I forget what his actual title was but along the lines of Special Assistant to the COS (CJ). He was using Sam's old office by the end of the show so surely that deserves some comment!
(Not intended as criticism, you guys do a fantastic job with all of this, I cant imagine keeping it all straight!)

Seaborn On Defense; Is CJ Gregg On The Way Out?
Washington-The new administration is reportedly in turmoil following the Senate's rejection of Abigail Bartlet as Health Secretary. Fresh new tensions including a flare-up between Chief of Staff Will Bailey and Gregg were reportedly witnessed by West Wing staffers following news of the Senate vote, which included a decisive "no" by Senator Fitzimmons (D) who is also Senate Minority Leader.
For her own part Mrs. Bartlet has remained mostly silent over the rejected confirmation, although both she and President Seaborn are reportedly "fuming" at Fitzimmons personally. There has been no indication as of yet who the next nominee for the position of Health Secretary will be, or how this might affect future nominations, particularly for the Supreme Court.
As for Gregg, this will make for another notable setback in her already controversial relationship with the Seaborn administration. There are increasing rumors that CJ may either resign following this latest defeat or be shown the door by what must surely be a frustrated Seaborn. The episode has revived some unpleasant memories of the mistakes and mishaps of the Santos administration with regards to Josh Lyman's tenure as Chief of Staff, as well as CJ's earlier inexperience as White House Press Secretary during the early days of the Bartlet administration.

Highlights from Vice-President Hunter’s turn at hosting “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip”:
The Seaborn administration, desperate for positive news following the disastrous failure of former First Lady Abbey Bartlet’s nomination for Secretary of Health and Human Services, allowed Vice-President Jack Hunter to host sketch-comedy icon “Studio 60 on the Subset Strip” this past Friday. Hunter, one of the more popular members of the Seaborn administration, surprised the media when he revealed that he had agreed to host the popular show.
Reviews of the show have been mostly positive, with many citing Hunter’s comedic timing and ability to like fun at himself.

No problem, I enjoyed a respite from senate votes and politics in universe., it is nice to be silly no and again. I am saying this while stuck at home with ten inches of snow.Thanks. Fixed.
All of this "Putting the band back together" business has been a nightmare for Seaborn.
Doing research for this, Japan has direct an proportional elections. Just remember that folks it will come up again.
Some of the problems we're seeing now are a result of his incredibly close election that resulted in his coattails not being long enough to swing the Senate. Had Hollis' contingent vote and/or Abby Bartlet's nomination gone to a Democratic Senate whose majority would face a lot of pressure by their base to ratify the new president's choices, there would be very different results and reactions to the president's personnel choices here.
