It is now officially campaign season.
Not because Rick Santorum got out of the GOP race yesterday, clearing the state for an epic Mitt Romney vs. Barack Obama slugfest. By the way, would someone remind New Gingrich to turn out the lights when he leaves the stage?
My reminder came more on the local level, something that happens every campaign season.
Of course, I’m talking about that new Olympic sport, campaign sign theft.
I got a call from Bob Cassidy, who is running for the Democratic nomination in the 163rd state House legislative district.
This is classic Delco neighborhood stuff. It happens in every campaign. It also rarely actually makes the newspaper unless it rises to the level where charges are actually filed.
For the most part it’s a nuisance. Of course, it’s a little more than that to Cassidy. He says signs were take from outside a house on Baltimore Pike in Clifton Heights (including one that was a replacement for a sign already pilfered), and several more on Garrett Road in Drexel Hill.
Let’s play fair out there, folks.
Hands off the campaign signs.
