Overall: 
I don't think the originally proposed hook is interesting because as someone who doesn't know of Patagonia, nothing stands out. As for my suggestion, I believe that it would be interesting for someone to read about how a school teacher became a successful politician. Everyone knows what a high school teacher is, and it is well known that entering politics is difficult, especially climbing the ranks. This is why I believe the mention of a teacher becoming a successful politician makes a better hook. One thing to note is that this is my second DYK review (1st that meets the criteria I am supposed to follow), and if you have any constructive criticism to offer, I'd be glad to hear it.

- @Chef Vortex: There is nothing interesting about a teacher becoming a politician. There are a million teachers who have become politicians. Him being a write-in candidate with the support of a large company is interesting. Jon698 (talk) 00:41, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
