Question: What are the specific rules and guidelines for campaigns to follow regarding political signs?

Answer: I checked in with Arizona Republic legislative reporter Mary Jo Pitzl to find out if she had any information on political sign stipulations. Here's what she reports:

"State law says signs can go up no sooner than 45 days before the primary election and must come down within seven days of the general election. There are other restrictions, as contained in this statute: http://www.azleg.gov/ars/16/01019.htm

In addition, cities and towns can impose their own requirements, as long as they don't cancel out what the state allows. Plus, HOAs have their own rules on campaign signs."
