2 of 3 big "Re-elect Little Ceasar Iowa Governor"on state right of way between Red Oak and I-29

Is that OK now?

and at the home of a driver of a Southwest Iowa Transit Bus a Dr. Hieb the Libertarian yard sign is on the state right of way. How long would that job last with her as governor?

While technically I wasn't in authority to do so, I took it upon my self to remedy the situation. I just didn't want to burden the local officials with this task.



IA Code § 68A.406

...
2. a. Campaign signs shall not be placed on any of the following:

(1) Any property owned by the state or the governing body of a county, city, or other political subdivision of the state, including all property considered the public right-of-way. Upon a determination by the board that a sign has been improperly placed, the sign shall be removed by highway authorities as provided in section 318.5, or by county or city law enforcement authorities in a manner consistent with section 318.5.

Perhaps a call to the authorities is in order

I sent a message in to the city and they went and pulled it down.

That doesn't piss me off like leafletting of vehicles at churches does. One time I was in church and some asshole came by and leafleted all the cars surrounding the church and in the church parking lot with Republican garbage.
