Restrictions on Political Signs

When election time rolls around, whether it be a high-profile presidential contest or a local but competitive school board race, you might want to display your support for one candidate or another outside of your residence. Everyone has a right to express political support, but be aware that there may be restrictions on the display of political signs outside your home. These rules should apply to everyone, no matter what party or candidate they support.
Time limits
Cities and towns sometimes create laws to prohibit political signs on private residential property that remain beyond a certain time period. For example, signs in some communities might be prohibited until one or two months before an election. Local governments could regulate the size and number of signs allowed at private residences, as well. Rules like these have been subject to successful appeals at the U.S. Supreme Court. Nonetheless, check with your local city, town, or village hall to see if there are any restrictions you should know about.
