There is a sentence referring to "their persevered poor showing in the 1999 election" (emphasis added). Wiktionary says "persevered" is a verb, so there is some grammar problem in that, or perhaps some jargon that is so obscure that it isn't found in the dictionary. I also checked Collins, Oxford and Merriam-Webster, to no avail. Rephrasing seems justified, but I don't understand what the phrase is attempting to say. — BarrelProof (talk) 20:48, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
