Now that the primary election is over and the top-two winners have been chosen for November, the sad vestiges of the campaigns linger on.

From one end of Sammamish to the other end in Issaquah, tired and faded yard signs blight the district, littering roads and adjacent property. It’s up to the candidates and their supporters to make certain their election detritus is cleaned up and, if possible, recycled for another day.

As much as it is a responsibility of running for office is the cleaning up afterward.
