From the elections website

Election advertising does not have to be removed from social media as long as:

  • it was published before election day
  • it’s only made available to people who voluntarily access it, and
  • no advertisements promoting the page or site are published on election day
  • you don’t repost the material on election day, even if the information was posted before election day.

So what I posted looks fine; as long as I don't repost or link to it on election day

I wonder how this works if we are still actively discussing this on election day; does that count as "reposting/linking"?

I would guess it's fine so long as the new content being added doesn't endorse anyone. I don't see it as any different to replying to an older facebook post.
