It was based on what my sister in law and her friends were planing to do to screw with the other side. That post was hidden very quickly so I explained my question better in another post;

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511638036

As noted in an update to the 2nd post I was able to share the thoughts from this site and she changed her mind.

Your first post was not a question, but a call out for others to do this.

And rightfully hidden.

has anyone you know ever been convinced to vote a certain way by someone dropping this kind of request on a message board anywhere?

It has been the best car I have ever owned, bar none. Economical in all respects and reliable absolutely.

So, maybe the poster's "imported" message is of some value. I doubt it, though.

Mon Apr 4, 2016, 05:44 PM

Automated Message

AUTOMATED MESSAGE: You alerted on a post which was already alerted

Mail Message

On Mon Apr 4, 2016, 03:28 PM you sent an alert on the following post:

Vote Trump Open Primary Wisconsin Dems/Burnie Fans
http://www.democraticunderground.com/12511645355

REASON FOR ALERT

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


JURY RESULTS

Someone else already alerted on this post before you alerted on it, and only the first alert was sent to a Jury. A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of the post on Mon Apr 4, 2016, 03:24 PM, and voted 3-4 to keep IT. Please note that even though your alert was not sent to a Jury, it has been forwarded to the Administrators who review all alerts.

Thank you.

had I been selected to be on the jury.

I usually get selected for ones that don't warrant being hidden.

Darn!

How come this OP is still visible?

Just seems really bad.

is your first name Walter, by any chance? I knew a Walter Mitty once, while serving in the USAF. He was a good guy, if a little scatter-brained. If it's you, how are you doing, dude?

doing this.

We need every single vote that comes our way, fair and square.

You don't vote 'for' someone in order to mess up another's campaign for heavens sake.

I agree with another poster, I can't believe this thread is still visible.
