Campaign Yard Signs

Not only are my signs disappearing all over the place, some are getting pulled up and laid on the ground. Others are simply disappearing. In the images above they are even going so far as throwing them onto this Delmarva Power fenced in lot. We have even been told they are pulling signs from one house and putting them back up on properties that didn't give permission to place them on. 

When you don't have a record to run on, this is what they do.

This is ridiculous. Thanks for sharing this Joe. You now have my vote. Mr. Ireton needs to grow up.

I think Delmarva Power need to charge Ireton with littering

With 35mph winds today and this past weekend, did you ever stop and think maybe the "they" you speak of might just be the wind?? Until you show proof, your accusations are just innuendo and will be used to further discredit you. Want to be mayor? Start dealing with facts Joe.

446-The last 4 years has discredited Ireton. Stealing signs isn't above that lowlife.

OH and I guess it was the "winds today and this past weekend" that upped and blew the signs and replaced them in yards where permission wasn't given that they be 4:46?

anonymous 4:46, I have signs next to open fields with no trees or buffers anywhere around them and they are fine. I try to get out a few times a week to check on the sign locations I know of and again, they are fine. The winds may have laid them down at an angle in some places but I simply pull them out and place them back in the ground the way they were meant to be.

Signs have disappeared in several locations and we have simply replaced them. We didn't get 500 signs given to us, unlike another candidate who showed them as a $250.00 donation, yet they were actually worth almost $4,000.00. I'm sure that will catch up with them before all is said and done.

We are running a CLEAN and HONORABLE campaign. Just ask Jim how kind I was to him at the Greater Salisbury Committee Forum yesterday.

Again, when you don't have a record to run on, this is what they do.

anon4:46 When I see anyone pull up an ALBERO SIGN i will get the car make, ID the person and give it to Mayor Albero. Then I will go to court with him and Im hope it is you.

There is a lot of dirty stuff like this going on, so Joe isn't making it up.

While I do not support Joe, I will defend him, as would I do for anyone I believe is right. I have a Jake Day sign in my yard and the wind was blowing directly at the broad side of my sign and it never blew "out". It did however bend down and all I had to do was straighten it out. I believe Joe is right on this one.

Now which Richard Head is this from the Ireton camp this is. Speaking of wanting to be mayor and dealing with facts, why doesn't Mr. Ireton deal with facts and run a clean campaign instead of running an anti-albero hate blog. Do you want me to tell you why? Because the facts Ireton has to deal with may cause him to lose an election so he has no choice, but to run to a hate blog and use diversion tactics to hide his dismal record in office. He is nothing more than a glorified office girl imitating a mayor and a school teacher.

Why would you have a Jake Day sign in your yard? This is the most pathetic comment and what a disgrace to an honorable councilmember who has helped save this city millions of dollars. I guarantee you Jake "The Rubber stamper" Day won't be able to say this

i didnt notice any Jake DAY signs down after the windy weekend, so that argument sucks.

12:09 AM, why did you feel the need to attack me? I'm waiting for Joe to stop by my house so I can hear him out. Until then, I do not support him. I did however take his side on what he posted. I stated that I believe he is right because my Jake Day sign didn't blow out, just down. I'm not attacking you or who you want to vote for, and I appreciate Joe allowing my comment to go through.

Debbie Campbell signs are disappearing. I am on my 3rd one. It is especially difficult for a candidate like Debbie who is backed by regular folks like me to keep replacing the. On the other hand, her opponent has enty of backing from the politicos who gave us the failed WWTP and tens of millions in developer perks to their cronies.
