(4,775 posts)33. Sounds good, is there a reason you can't move them
instead of locking them? Locking wastes discussion, incuding conversations that were already in progress.
Also of course there will be a lot of gray area around what is about Bernie or Clinton (for example) and what is about the primaries. Is most anything about a candidate, even if the actual topic is not specifically about the primaries, but say, about them, is that kind of thing also supposed to be in GD : Primaries?
I pretty much never start OP's so not relevant to me, but I'm thinking the better this is defined, the less violation of it you will see.
