Ahh... the return of political season!

I actually find political season very interesting... I know many people hate it!

Why do I find it interesting, you might be asking.

I find it fascinating to see the city wallpapered in signs for the candidates. Well, let me clarify that a bit. I find it fascinating to see which candidates can't be bothered to remove their signs after the election is over.

The candidates spend lots of time talking about how important it is to clean up the city, and I have great respect for those that remove their signs soon after the election is over. However, the candidates that leave their signs to rot in the sun for months to come should be ashamed of themselves.

I was pleased to see that the two mayoral candidates that are having a run-off this November promptly removed their signs after the June election!

Also, I found it heart-warming that after Andreas Borgeas won in June, he (or someone on his committee) added tasteful "Thank You" signs onto some of their large signs!
