Jun 3, 2021 at 21:58 comment added T.E.D. @JoeW - Yeah, I think in this particular case at least, you'd probably be right there. For the OQ the actual data points were clearly just a means to an end, so I'd think it would be rather annoying to have to not only completely redo the data every 2 years, but also reanalyze it and modify any conclusions in the answer that may no longer fit the data so well.
Jun 3, 2021 at 21:55 comment added Joe W I might be wrong as well, but I am not sure of the value of a list that gets updated after every election as new senators fit the criteria join the senate. Also the past list could change as a family could be considered a political family over time as more members decide to get into politics but not when they first joined the senate.
Jun 3, 2021 at 21:45 comment added T.E.D. @JoeW - Ah. So perhaps I misunderstood the instructions? In that case, it might be a good idea to update the question (or the answer) to specifically reference only the Senate makeup of the 117th Congress (the current sitting Senate this cycle)? Just in case I'm not the only user foolish enough to misread it that way.
Jun 3, 2021 at 21:42 comment added Joe W I was thinking that answer was going to be a point in time answer and not updated for new senators got seated.
