Is there any way that we can prevent the election signs from blocking some of the major intersections in town? My biggest example is at the corner of Highway 97/Eckhardt and Railway.
The cluster of signs attached to the fence on the vacant lot is blocking views of traffic. Do we really need to have eight of the same candidate’s signs on that same corner? I’ll vote for who I will vote for and I don’t need to have the insane amount of overkill of signs to sway me. Also, who cleans up your signs after the election? Can you honestly tell me and my kids that you aren’t littering after the election? Can we limit the signage to one per candidate per corner in future?
Another thing, put the date of the civic election on your signs so that we are reminded when the election is. I read that the turnouts have been low for the last elections. I might forget, and your signs will remind me and probably a lot more concerned voters to get out and vote.
