Let 1,000 signs bloom

Extra early political lawn sign placement starts today

June 25, 2010 at 4:36PM

Something is popping out of Minnesota lawns and it is not dandelions.

Starting Friday, campaigns are permitted to place lawn signs across Minnesota.

Some municipalities have ordinances restricting the placement of lawn signs. In a state general election year (even years), these ordinances are overruled by Minnesota Statutes 211B.045 from 46 days before the primary until 10 days after the general election, and campaign signs may be posted in any size and number. For 2010, this period begins June 25. In municipalities which have no sign ordinance, campaign signs may be posted in any size and number throughout the year.

It’s too soon to tell how much the immigration crackdown is to blame.
