CAMPAIGN SIGNS ALLOWED WITH SOME RESTRICTIONS

The Sumter County Board of Commissioners have voted to allow political candidates to place one (1) campaign sign, no larger than 24 inches X 36 inches at the Fairgrounds on election day in a place to be decided by the Elections Supervisor.  No other non-official signage will be allowed on County property.  In addition, as per Georgia law, O.C.G.A. § 32‑6‑51, no signage may be placed on the right of ways of public roads; this includes campaign signage.  Signs placed with permission on private property are permissible.  Violations of this state law in Sumter County will result in the confiscation of the signage in violation and possible citation by County officers.
