I chose a new start word after reading about the debt ceiling politics. It took less than two minutes to do the puzzle. It should be a no brainer to deal with the debt ceiling.

Raise / Count are my 5 letter starter words
Raised / County are my 6 letter starter words.

I obviously used the 5 letter version on the 6 letter puzzle when I labeled it. Fixed it.

Thanks for your attention to detail.

I chose AIDER for my second guess because I is the fourth most commonly used letter in the alphabet and I had used the rest of the top five (E,A,R, and O) with SOARE. However, WordleBot told me AIDER was not the "most efficient" choice.
