Election Day Sign Games

Here are two instances brought to my attention of campaigns blocking a rival’s sign.

A John Bartman sign was placed in front of opponent Steve Reick's at Heritage Woods in McHenry.

  1. The one for Bartman is obviously inappropriate and reflects poorly on him, even if it was done without his knowledge.

    But then again he is a Democrat candidate for the 63rd State Representative District.

    Which is the district in which Jack Franks supporter Democrat Jeffery Lichte filed to run as a Republican in the March 15, 2016 primary election.

    Thus Steve Reick faced a Democrat opponent in the primary, while Democrat Jack Franks went unopposed.

    ++++++

    Once, just move the Barman sign.

  2. Less is more sometimes.

    Too many signs or sign aggression bodes poorly for a candidate.
