Greetings Livingston County,

 

Our office has recently received complaints of theft of campaign signs from citizen's yards.  Simply put, this is unacceptable behavior.  Our great country is founded upon the right to vote and the right to support whomever or whatever we believe is best for our country.

It is a CRIMINAL OFFENSE to steal or vandalize campaign signs under Missouri Law and you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent if you are caught doing this.

I have attached a link to the Missouri Revisor of Statutes section 115.367 below.
