Even during the primary, users can still leave comments under the nominations.

However, the link just points to the elections page, but it doesn't specify the phase.

For example, the link to the last comment I received pointed to

https://stackoverflow.com/election/3#post-10982188

while it should have pointed to

https://stackoverflow.com/election/3?tab=nomination#post-10982188

so it still works in the primary.

    Also, unlike the rest of SE, comment links do not expand the relevant comment thread if the comment is hidden away. Commented Jun 12, 2012 at 11:56
  • Related: Links to election nominations don't work after nominations close (similar issue, but on "link" button from nomination post).

    This has probably been fixed with the recent revamping of the election UI, but I don’t know if any recent election has gone into the primary phase, so I can’t check… Commented Nov 27, 2021 at 10:51

  • @V2Blast The ongoing election on ruSO has entered the primary phase, in case you want to check if this has been fixed. Commented Apr 14, 2023 at 14:25
