Campaign Signs Pranked

Submitted by Sarah on Fri, 08/25/2006 - 3:02pm.

Up on the west side of Olympia, Harrison and Division, there is a now vacant lot on one corner that often hosts a field of political campaign signs. I've been watching the progress of a small home made Vote Anarchy sign (Anarchy in symbol form - not spelled out.). Sometimes the sign stood proudly amidst the others, sometimes it appeared it had been kicked over, sometimes it leaned against other much larger signs. Today I wasn't able to locate it at all, perhaps it was resting in the weeds.

Now a new twist has emerged. At least 10 of the slick mass produced political campaign signs sport a new addition, that of a V for Vendetta imaged flyer.

Anyone have any info on this?

I won't be back up that way until tomorrow. From what I recall, looked like the flyers were put up til they ran out, focus mostly I think on signs closest to streets.

If they are still up, maybe someone can grab a photo of the scene and post it for us.
