Just by looking at the background can you identify where in Simi Valley this photo was taken?

After each political season there is always a few signs that stay up for months that are overlooked by the campaigns when they are cleaning up. This time all of the campaigns did a pretty good job of picking up their signs in Simi Valley. But what about in your neighborhood?

This sign is in Simi Valley. If Carole Lutness gives me permission I will go take it down myself.

If you see any signs that remain up, email me and I will post them.

After each election there are a few signs that seem to stay up for months in some places. In Ventura County I have used this blog to encourage candidates to take down their signs. If you see a sign still up, send me a photo and I will post it.

Make sure to include the location and if you want credit for the photo.

Click on continue reading for a contest that Carole Lutness, former candidate for state assembly, is running to encourage people to take down her signs.

Let the games begin.

( These signs are in a private yard in East Simi Valley and were up as of July 14th.)

As a public service after an election I post pictures of signs up even though the polls closed weeks ago. In the past it has provided a little bit of comic relief and encouraged people to pick up their signs.

If you see your campaign's sign listed here you can give permission for others to pick it up if it is in a public location. If it is in a supporter's yard give them a call and tell them the election is over.

If you see a sign that remains up, take a picture and send it to me. Include the date and approximate location.

The judges race is over. There is no run off. Bennett won the race. Time to take down the sign. As far as the Rep. Gallegly sign goes he is on the ballot in November so that makes more sense.

Any signs sticking around too long in your neighborhood? Please send them in for me to post.

( This Michael Tenenbaum sign was photographed July 10th on Cochran Avenue in Simi Valley on the north side of the street between Target and Sycamore. Michael, can I take it down for you? Credit for picture not given.)

Let the games begin. I have a few others to share including some Gallegly signs and a sign for the judges race. What about your part of the district? Any signs hanging around too long?

In a bit of strange news my blog and I were the subject of a Channel 3 News Piece. They didn't even interview me.

This one was sent in from a reader that spotted it in the Knolls on the way up to Rocky peak. I don't know all the regulations covering The Knolls but I know it is outside the city of Simi Valley's sign regulations.

Candidates and their supporters lose track of all the locations that their signs are up at. If you see an old sign snap a picture and e-mail it in so they can go and pick it up. I know Donna Prenta will have it picked up right away.

Donna, is it okay if any reader picks it up for you?

I saw this sign outside of Wienerschnizel on Los Angeles tonight Feb. 24th.

As a test to see if Peter Foy and his team read this blog let's count down the time it takes to disappear. Of course it has been close to four months at so far.

How is it that the city has a new punitive sign law but yet this sign has been up for this long? I wish the city would enforce current laws before making new regulations.

Anyways, if you see old signs from ANY candidate e-mail them in and I will post them.

This picture is a few weeks old, so most likely the sign is no longer there. I am posting this because a reader sent it in from the cell phone camera ( that explains the pixels) and it is in a funny location.

The sign was last seen at the corner of Tapo and Township. Can anyone do a field report and tell me if the sign is still there?

If you see any signs left over froma previous election, e-mail me a picture with the location and the date and I will post it. I post them as a public service so that candidates will remove their signs. Sometimes a zealous supporter puts them out and the campaign doesn't even know where they all went. I wonder which candidate will be the last one standing this season? ( Their signs that is!)

In this ongoing series I post pictures of signs left over from the primary season around town as a gentle nudge for candidates and their supporters to take them down.

In this update a Bob Larkin for State Assembly sign is currently up on First Street south of Los Angeles Avenue.

Is there a sign still up that is bothering you? E-mail it to me and I will post it. Include details like the date of the picture and the location.
