N.H. GOP: Take down your yard signs

Yet another storm-related precaution, this one sent Monday by the New Hampshire Republican Party via email to the rank and file:

Good Morning, As hurricane Sandy quickly approaches today, we ask that all lawn signs be taken down so they are not blown away and cause damage. With the election a week away, the campaigns won't be able to replace all missing signs, and this way they will be ready for you to put back out after the storm passes. Thank you for your assistance, and stay safe and dry! — NH GOP

From canceled campaign events to disruptions in ad traffic to fears of storm-tossed yard signs, it’s clear that Hurricane Sandy could not have hit at a more politically inopportune time than eight days before the election.
