Candidates Should Clean Up After Themselves
The 2022 Democratic and Republican Party Congressional and State Senate Primary Election Day has come and gone. This reminds me of “The Outer Limits,” a 1960s television show. With the end of round-the-clock commercials by politicians, political action groups and pay for play special interest groups, we now return control of your television back to you until the November General Election cycle. No more candidates campaign mailings clogging mailboxes and weighing down our hardworking postal employees. Finally, some peace and quiet!
Now if only all the winning and losing candidates would pick up all the thousands of campaign signs that litter our roads and highways to clean up our environment. Candidates’ campaign volunteers and paid staff who placed campaign signs can collect and properly dispose of them. Why not also have some who have been sentenced to community service by judges help out as well?
