I don't know the law, but I've seen these signs with just Bruno & Sanders blacked out as well. Even though I don't support their slate, I support their right to advertise their slate to voters.
In my opinion, the signs are the property of AP/Action (how do you make that straight line???) By accepting these signs, you are agreeing that you support AP/Action, and agree to use your lawn for advertising space for them. By blacking out certain names, you are twisting the advertising message that they are trying to project, thus voiding the agreement. IMO, they have the right to take back their advertising, and redisplay it on someone else's property who will agree to show the full message. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "wernerapnj" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On a related note, yesterday morning I saw one of the AP/ACTION signs > with all the names except for Mr. Johnson covered with tape at the > corner of 4th and Grand.
