lawn sign. When I went out to retrieve my Bernie lawn sign - I realized that somebody had stolen it. I'm contemplating calling the local police to report it. One a report is filed - it makes the local newspaper as things that happened in the community.
I just hope that the village I live in didn't remove the sign from my private property.

(10,014 posts)One Halloween in an election year, my neighbors woke up to find over 100 campaign signs in their front yard. Every candidate and issue was represented. I know it is wrong but it was kind of funny.

(6,496 posts)Not sure how it works with these presidential campaigns. A local mayoral campaign worker put up a sign on my lawn last year and they told me they would come by and collect the sign after the election.

(3,743 posts)were vandalized. Everyone running for the school board/city council talked about some of their signs being stolen or defaced. It happened when he ran for school board and lost and it happened when he ran for school board and won. Just goes with the territory I am afraid. It used to just gall me because we paid good $$ for those signs!

(20,588 posts)sit out of view with his rifle hoping to "catch" who was stealing his wife's signs. The police might help in that extreme case!
Also- knew of a guy who used campaign signs to stake up plants in his vegetable garden. He did seem to prefer democrats though.
Good $$ is right - they can be reused too!

(4,187 posts)who had at least seven Trump signs in front of his house. As if that weren't enough, he would sometimes sit in front of his house, holding up another Trump sign. (This is a liberal neighborhood in a blue state.) Over the next two weeks or so, all but one disappeared. Yesterday, I passed by his house and saw that the last sign, too, was gone.
