Only Democratic primary stuff goes in GDP. Saw a couple people post about having their posts locked about Republican primary in GDP.

GD-P is for all the uncivil people at war with each other over which Democrat they favor.

non-primary-related Democratic politics, and anything else that is not 'Democratic presidential primary' goes here in GD. Topics about the Democratic presidential primary, and only that, go in General Discussion: Primaries.

The announcement of the re-purposed GDP provides more info:

The Politics 2015 forum has been renamed General Discussion: Primaries and is now for exclusive discussion of the Democratic presidential primaries. Any new threads about the Democratic primaries MUST be posted in this forum. (Note: threads about the Republican presidential primaries are still permitted in General Discussion.)


Also, here are a couple of answers from ATA that might be helpful:

word to the Statement of Purpose for GDP. Still, we've all got 8-12 months in which to master the DU primary season intricacies...

Maybe he should have his own forum. We could call it "Pinata".
