A proposal for "Elections" forum rules description change

The first page of the “Elections” forum has more moved threads on it then the first page of any other forum right now. I believe it’s because what topics belong there are confusing to the OP.

From the sticky titled "Rules for Great Debates and Elections at SDMB:

I parse the first part following the comma as meaning “for discussion of strategy and tactics of elections and electoral politics.” Okay, so it’s still regarding everything about elections. Following that interpretation, the second part would mean “for discussion of political parties of elections and electoral politics.” Now it’s no longer necessarily about elections and/or electoral politics. The same with “politicians” and “public figures.” I’m guessing so many threads are being moved (or aren’t moved but apparently should be) because of the above rules description.

There was a locked one post thread that for some reason wasn’t stickied:

It would probably help to have less threads started in “Elections” that will be moved, or should be moved, if the rules state something closer to what Jonathan Chance wrote above rather than what is there now.

My post from a thread a few weeks ago on this subject.
