Pollard should be more experienced than this!
Many of us have noticed that large "Pollard" signs have suddenly appeared around the district. On closer inspection, it appears that these signs have been recycled from the previous state Senate campaign, with the lower portion cut off. There is nothing wrong with that. The problem is that in cutting off the bottom, those who posted the signs have also eliminated the mandatory authorization line, which must be part of any political advertising. In Title 24.2 of the Code Those instructions also state that "any disclosure required by this section shall be displayed in a conspicuous manner." Under 24.2-955.3 of the code, certain penalties are prescribed for violation of these laws. These signs have begun Jeff Gerau Caroline
§ 24.2-955.1:
"'Advertisement' means any message appearing in the print media, on television, or on radio that constitutes a contribution or expenditure under Chapter 9.3 (§ 24.2-945 et seq.)."
It DOES NOT include campaign signs! Stop stop trying to smear someone with your lies!
Furthermore, I've seen candidates (of both parties) without disclosure statements on their campaign signs!
