Maybe you should follow your own advice and read the third paragraph of the TOS

Vote for Democrats.

Winning elections is important — therefore, advocating in favor of Republican nominees or in favor of third-party spoiler candidates that could split the vote and throw an election to our conservative opponents is never permitted on Democratic Underground.

Someday you might learn how to say I quit being an idiot, instaed of I then I quit being an idiot Autumn Apr 2016 #3

Grammar nazi? Buzz Clik Apr 2016 #8

Rude Nazi? Autumn Apr 2016 #10

Your friend who authored the OP needs to leave. Now. Buzz Clik Apr 2016 #14

No he doesn't have to leave the site. You don't have to belong to the democratic party Autumn Apr 2016 #20

Au contraire! Openly supporting another political party on this board is a violation of the TOS. Buzz Clik Apr 2016 #24

Oh my friend you are so misinformed. The TOS does not require you be a democrat. Autumn Apr 2016 #34

Ahem. "Vote to block" would, in the past, presumably have included a vote for Nader. Capisce? The OP WinkyDink Apr 2016 #77

Good thing Naders not running then. nt Autumn Apr 2016 #92

But the poster whining about the OP says he was a Republican voter in the past, so Bluenorthwest Apr 2016 #101

Perhaps the OP will clarify after he/she is done crucifying him/herself for our sins. Tommy_Carcetti Apr 2016 #82

They will vote for the democrat to keep a republican out. No clarification needed if you read Autumn Apr 2016 #91

How are you? I tried that little "." thing we discussed the other day, it worked well. Autumn Apr 2016 #38

I'm as well as can be expected. I love that thing! Also, it is good to see you. Dragonfli Apr 2016 #44

One particularly nasty "." got banned today. I would like to see that take hold. Autumn Apr 2016 #45
