Ignoring the Campaign Sign Ordinance

Right now in a seemingly endless election year we have lots of candidates vying for the chance to represent us in various government positions that require them to uphold and respect our laws and regulations. It appears that most of them think the sign ordinances don’t apply to them.

Columbia Falls, Kalispell and Flathead County all have election sign ordinances that say SIGNS MAY BE ERECTED NOT MORE THAN 30 DAYS BEFORE AN ELECTION. There have been election signs junking up our roadways for two months. What other laws will these candidates ignore if elected? Take stock of the signs up around you and make a list of who NOT to vote for.
