Decision 2010: Calgary Municipal Election

[MalcolmTucker]

It might seem excessive when viewed from the outside, but in a short writ period, with limited funds, signs are pretty effective. Personally I would argue for fewer larger signs for public signs, since then it is easier to maintain - but the alternative of so many small signs that you don't need to really monitor likely works as well.

The placement wars for McIver vs Higgins are pretty pointless. Much easier to call in your opponent for using metal stakes on public land which is illegal, but many campaigns do it anyways.

But yeah, the signs are always there during an election.
