“Sign, sign, everywhere a sign
Blockin’ out the scenery, breakin’ my mind
Do this, don’t do that, can’t you read the sign?”

Election year 2020 has to be the year of the political sign.
Everywhere I have traveled in the past two months there has been a form of a political sign. From the inner city to the rural most parts of America, there is a political sign showing support for a candidate.
Some signs are planted into the ground. Some are posted to a fence or wall and others are flown. Yards full of them. The side of the road is littered with them.
Vote this, don’t vote that, can’t you read the sign.

People must be informed on events happening in and around their lives and have their voices heard.
