“Signs” not good for a Higgins win in Mesa

I have a theory, the first campaign to complain about yard signs loses the election. It never fails. Towards the end of any election cycle things heat up, volunteers and supporters of each campaign tear down the yard signs of the competition. The way to tell who will win is which campaign stays focused and doesn’t complain. Am I saying stealing or destroying signs is ok? No not at all, but it’s going to happen. It always does. Put your head down and keep moving, because from my experience complaining accomplishes absolutely nothing. Just ask JD Hayworth.

This years first report of complaining (at least the first I have read about) is Mesa City Council member candidate Dina Higgins. Higgins will be facing Phil Austin in the May 20th runoff and is complaining about her lost signs. Higgins has said she has ordered new signs to replace those she has lost. Well if my theory is right, that the first to complain about signs is going to always lose, then she should have saved her money.
