Campaign Signs During every campaign there is always complaints regarding campaign signs. To some degree the complains have become part of campaign strategy, claiming a candidate does or doesn’t care about the community because of the littering of signs. It is understandable as most of us agree we tire quickly of looking at all the signs along the road. It’s marketing just as much as Coke or Pepsi . Yet campaign signs are protected under the First amendment, many a municipality have found themselves on the losing end when they enter into attempts to prohibit well known campaign yard signs. Dating back to the Roman Empire, campaigns have always intrigued the citizens and encouraged the competitors among us. On the rare occasion a sign is placed where it is not welcome, the property owner is advised to call the offending campaign to have the signs removed. Candidates rarely intentionally waste a sign where it is not welcome, as signs are expensive and often there are not enough for all the requests. Destroying campaign signs is illegal and can come with a costly penalty. Many citizens place the signs themselves to show their support for candidates and the issues. This leads to some passionate debate & discussions. That is one of the wonderful things about America, the encouragement and freedom for her citizens to speak up, letting their concerns be known to all. We all know however, that the concerns of citizens are much more than a sign. The citizens who step forward willing to represent a community do so because of a desire to serve, often at the request of the community. The individual throws their “hat” into the contest to represent the community and the community funds the signs. Fortunately for all of us signs are retrieved the day after and often the night that the election is complete. If you have had a sign placed on your property without your approval, please do not hesitate to notify the campaign and they will promptly remove the signs. Please be respectful of each other, remember that after the election the goal is for us to all come together and work for the betterment of the community and country.
