36. Does this mean that all nonpresidential primaries stay in GD?

For example, it seems likely that we'll have a Democratic primary for the nomination to succeed Barbara Mikulski. Given that the new "General Discussion: Primaries" is "for exclusive discussion of the Democratic presidential primaries," I assume that posts about that race are inappropriate for GD: Primaries and should therefore go to GD. Is that correct?

Of course, such posts could always go to Maryland, but that race is an example of subjects that would interest many DUers outside the particular state.

You don't think a move is better than a lock? dreamnightwind Jun 2015 #38

OK that's what I was wondering, makes sense and I guess Earl said as much - n/t dreamnightwind Jun 2015 #40
