ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Advocating for trump is not for this site.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri Feb 5, 2016, 09:15 PM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This comment is borderline, but during Primary season, it's just hypotheticals. Once the GE campaign starts, this sort of comment would warrant a hide.


Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Trump? You would vote for Trump???
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: While this was a borderline TOS violation, poster did not in fact openly advocate that Democrats vote for a Republican in order to spite Hillary. He or she merely shared their personal inclination to do so.

Snow Leopard: please keep these thoughts to yourself in the future. Thanks.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Poster is advocating others do it. Not against TOS.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I wouldn't call this ADVOCATING. Good grief, at least try to engage the poster in a discussion before alerting. This poster is not alone in this thread.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It's not general election season yet and, "it would be entertaining at least" isn't what I'd call advocating for Trump. This sounds more like idle chatter than advocacy.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
