I drove all over the county this weekend and I'm pretty sure I got a picture of at least one yard sign by every candidate that has one.
By the way, here's some free advice: If you have a limited number of signs and/or volunteers, make sure you get your signs to one of Orange County's three early voting sites!

One that's missing
That is a pretty comprehensive collection, but I think I know of one that's missing:
He doesn't have many signs up, and they are very small, but there are some out there.
Where's BJ's sign?
Quite right!
impressive
Simple & free
Yuhasz is everywhere!
Who foots the bill?
I keep wondering who's paying for all those Yuhasz signs and what they hope to get in return. He's got more signs and more coverage than I've ever seen for a county commissioner race. There's more Yuhasz signs in northern and western Orange than there are "No Home Tax" signs, and there's a ton of those and we know who's paying for them.
Just in general terms, what's it cost to run for CC in Orange these days? What's it cost to be successful?
best and worst signs?
Which yard sign do like or dislike and why?
I will start I don't like Bernadette Pelissier signs there is too much white space and the lettering is too small. I realize she was limited in size by trying to use her first name on the sign.
Steve Yuhasz's sign on the other hand jump out at you and are easy to spot and read. Good use of space and fonts.
most disappointing
Neloa's signs
So we've done vanilla endorsements
What are you waiting for?
One more sign to add
These are just starting to go out today (side note: anyone have a stapler and some spare time?)
Finally!
I love the Wolff's signs- 2
Paid attention
signs...signs....old song
real estate/yard sale/political signs.
more landfill space needed.
carbon signprint?
Executive Decision
I have a strong opinion about signs in general, although we have an Obama sign in our yard. Signs are not sustainable. They clutter the landscape, they junk up the the environment, they almost never help a candidate win. I've seen a few signs with legs, but most come pre-designed -- serving suggestions from companies that specialize in campaign fodder.
Today I made an excutive decision not to print and distribute Carrboro Day posters. The slogan reads, "Celebrating Our Sustainable Community," and posters fly in the face of that claim.
More signs
maybe?
you probably have(seen the Halkiotis signs) by now...but just in case
also, if not head into Hillsborough, they are there, and Efland also
apologies for the resolution, cellphone, while driving in all but the last...which for some reason I thought wasn't posted already
first terrible resolution shows
first 2 are for/because you mentioned Halkiotis
middle also has Allison, Eubanks and Morris
and the 3rd is to show the only large signs I have seen (wooden framed) Hartkopf (I have seen one heading towards Efland and one that seperates downtown Hillsbrough from "business" Hillsborough)
and this one is here...but...it's the only of decent quality (wasn't driving) so, here anyhow.
I give up on embedding the image...best I can tell HTML is allowed, maybe there is a flag on the ID
