Err on the Side of Election Excess

Have you ever gone on vacation, taken a ton of pictures and then didn’t look at them until a month later?  Well, I was in San Francisco just before the elections took place, and I’m just now getting around to the pictures.


I don’t go completely crazy when someone prints something out without thinking (well maybe a little), but election propaganda drives me insane.  I get it, say no to this, yes to that, he said she opposed this and *gasp* voted for that.  Does anyone really follow this stuff?  Who can you really believe?

Anyway, I wanted to share with you some obnoxious examples of leafleting that need to die.  Why not have one stand at each intersection with one equal sized flyer of each candidate, instead of leaving 25 on a single family dwelling’s doorstep?


To have some fun with it, collaborate with an open top dumpster company and make the stands out of scrap lumber and paint them all awesome like the majority of San Francisco.  As much as that reminds me of college campuses with their flyering areas, at least it’s a good start and a substantial reduction in materials.

By the end of my lovely stay, I felt like I knew all the candidates and their positions…well, their positions on waste reduction.
