It is if the topic has been discussed before on other vote threads and/or the PMC has made a decision about what is required and it is not in conflict with any ASF published policy. If you believe the PMC is in error than as an ASF member you are free to bring that topic up on the PMC list or as a separate thread here. Bringing it up on every vote thread borders on trolling IMO, even if you are 100% correct in what you believe should be done.
