I was the alerter but was not given a chance to put in a comment. I assumed someone had already alerted on the post, but then I received mail saying the post was left alone. (It could well be that two people alerted on the post at exactly the same time.)

Two of the jurors said they chose to leave the post alone because the alerter didn't provide any comments. As far as I'm concerned, if you choose to leave such an anti-Hillary, conspiracy-theory-spreading post because there was no comment in the alert to tell you why you should hide the post, you're not voting in an unbiased way. That's precisely what I indicated in my comments on the alert I sent on the vote. So if you voted to leave that post alone, who knows, you might actually lose your voting privileges.
