Dennis Julius has gotten a jump on incumbent Jeff mayor Mike Moore as far as political signs. Julius who must have started at the earliest possible moment has a substantial lead on the amount of "for mayor" signs already up. Is Moore overly confident ??? Is Julius that more popular ??? what gives ??? it's kind of surprising really, as usually candidates don't like their opponent to have any kind of advantage ...real or imagined.
If your a Moore supporter I wouldn't be too worried , I'm sure the signs will be coming soon. And to be honest the number of signs aren't a true indicator of success. In the last county elections "Toxic" John Perkins and Jerry "You have no rights" Jacobi had more signs than anyone and by large margins over their opponents ....yet both lost convincingly . As a matter of fact it wouldn't surprise me if "Toxic" John (probably the most reviled politician in Jeffersonville history) didn't pay people to hang one of his signs in their yards as normally Perkins had more signs than votes
Josh Rodriquez has the early lead on City council signs with nice glossy ones with his picture on them ...pretty jazzy for a position that pays about what you make part-time at McDonald's...plus you don't get fries with a City Council position...
Vote Out Moore..... We are getting LES in MOORE WAIZ than before!! Moore must go
ReplyDeleteMayor Moore is simply following the actual political sign time schedule legal requirement instead of ignoring it, as his opponent has done. Desperate move on the part of a weak challenger whose financial contributors are demanding action. Check the balance in a few days.
ReplyDeleteNot true. 60 days out is legal. I saw no signs I ut before the allowable time frame. Moore is waiting later. His handlers have decided to come out later, and republicans have followed.
DeleteAnytime out is legal. The recent SCOTUS ruling states that any sign ordinances must be content neutral. If they allow any sign they have to allow political signs.
DeleteWe are still waiting for our Julius sign. May have to take a drive down to 300 Spring in a week if it hasn't been delivered.
ReplyDeleteOr stop by his campaign office . Leave a note.
DeleteSerious question...Does anyone know the legal requirement on political signs ??? 30 days ?? 45 or 60 ???
ReplyDeleteSeems likes Julius was the first seen a couple of weeks ago...
60.
DeleteSigns don't vote.
ReplyDeleteA recent Supreme Court ruling has nullified that ordinance. The City of Jeffersonville can no longer pass sign laws that are based on content. That means they can't allow one type of sign but not another simply because of the content of the sign. So, if a yard sale sign is allowed then so is my campaign sign.
ReplyDeleteLooks like something I wrote.
Deletethose who have a few hours to kill:

I'm not referring to content, there has to be some time frame for political signs...I haven't been able to find it...Hell Perkins would have his signs up year round without some regulations on this Anyone ???
ReplyDeleteAn ordinance stating time periods for political signs is an ordinance based on content and therefore nullified.
DeleteIf a yard sale sign can stay up, then so can political signs... Year round
ReplyDeleteAnonymous is 100% correct.
Delete"no fries with city council position"
ReplyDeletebut plenty of prestige
What do you mean you don't get fries with a city council position? Next you'll tell me there is no Happy Meal toy either!! Someone lied to me!!!!

Perhaps it was more about trying satisfy public complaints about political campaign signs and how long they pollute the landscape.
