-----------------------

(We'll make efforts to check on the signs listed as illegally posted, but to assure a virtual fairness star on this blog, , campaigns are encouraged to send notices to signs05@cox.net.)

Please see, too, today's Barney Brantingham's column in the SB News-Press. This effort to have political signs placed where they belong, on private property, not littering public spaces, has deep roots within our community.

It is a matter of respect and consideration for the public — as well as fairness. It's an "issue," Barney wrote, "that comes up every single election and one I've campaigned about."

We here, including e-mailers and cellphone-carrying joggers, will continue to keep eyes peeled throughout this long campaign period.
