Trouble opting out of jury duty

I was alerted for jury duty this morning, but since the issue was “right wing talking points” and I am not up on such, I wanted to opt out. I did click on want to leave, but then a very wide blue banner opened up to confirm, and it was too wide for me to be able to click on confirm with my iPhone.

Which mode are you using: Default, Night Mode, or Skinner Mode? Also, what kind of device are you using when this happens?

And I’m guessing you might have been on the home page when this happened… I’m pretty sure I know what’s going on here and I should be able to fix it.

What right wing talking points? It is a matter of guilty or not guilty or if it is a civil case how much do they need to pay. Or grand jury duty, which is a long duty.
