One of the things I appreciate about this forum is a fairly strict ban on politics.
I'm not sure if everyone is seeing the same ads that I am but on the right side of the page...every page, is a political ad; same ad from the same group essentially suggesting how I should vote.
I've clicked on the X to close it 20 times and they say "ok, we won't show this ad again" but the very next page, there it is. Been going on for days now.
I'd like to find a way to get rid of it permanently.
My real question to the administrators is, is this an ad that has paid this site to advertise on or is it the result of my (highly unlikely) searching for such information triggering a pop-up? The ad says "paid for by DCCC".
If it's the former, I'd find it a bit odd--but not objectionable--for a site that (rightly) limits political discussion to be taking money from political sources. I'm fairly apolitical so I doubt it's the result of any other sites or searches I've made.
OR...Am I the only one seeing these political ads here, targeted for reasons unknown?
