At least their campaigns are.

It is a sad situation for conservative local candidates. They want to be against big government, but when it comes to finding places for their campaign signs in a town where hardly anyone will put one in their front yard, options are short.

So, instead of depending on their landlord buddies who put campaign signs in front of rundown rental houses, Beehler and Stakelin are putting up plenty of signs on government property. Right-of-ways, that kind of things.

And, the old McKinley Elementary School site near my home at Boulevard and 15th, has four signs between Beehler and Stakelin.
