AUTOMATED MESSAGE: Results of your Jury Service

Response to PM question re write-in votes

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

This poster is basically giving people all the info they need to do a write-in ballot for Joe Sestak. The Pennsylvania Primary is over and Joe Sestak lost. Poster should not be advocating for write-in candidates when we have a Democratic nominee named Katie McGinty. Advocating for write-ins is advocating for Democrats to lose the very winnable Senatorial race in PA. Also, this poster is giving instructions on how to register as an Independent in Pennsylvania. Both of these things go against the TOS, as the General Election has already started in this state. Our nominees are chosen. If you don't believe it's General Election time here in PA, just ask Republican Pat Toomey. He's been running a whole lot of ads this week. It's unfortunate the poster doesn't like the Democratic nominee, but that is no reason to wish for, and advocate for, her defeat.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat May 7, 2016, 04:56 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE

Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
