last night. The few Hillary signs that were out still remain. I am devastated and BITTER. I just came back to post this, and I'm headed back to the polls and to drive people to vote. Hope things get better today. Peace.

1. Try to take some comfort in realizing
that maybe they were stolen out of love rather than hate.

2. Were they in yards or the road right-of-way?
Sometimes the road commission or equivalent will take them if they are placed too close to the road.

6. Most candidate signs that are removed are for that reason.

The safest place is in an individual's front yard.

Otherwise, you're begging the county to collect them.

10. They were in places with lots of other political signs...
we were very careful where we put them, only ours were stolen. Ron Paul and Hillary signs were still there.

3. That's what Republicans do when you run against them.
Everything about Hillary's campaign screams "GOP!!" The shoddy tactics. The slams against other Democrats. The dirty tricks. Appalling.

4. Fear drives people to do crazy things. Keep up the great work. Love your name. n/t

5. You should report it to the police.
It is a crime, you know.

8. Where exactly did you put the signs?
That may be your explanation right there.
