With each November comes two things, first the promise of traditional home cooked Thanksgiving Day meal on the forth Thursday of the month, with lots of football games to watch; and second the political process of voting that takes place on the first Tuesday of the month each and every November. While the bigger and more involved campaigns of national candidates running for the highest office in the land take place once every four years, throughout the country state and city elections are held each year to position one local political candidate or another in a race for the office of mayor, governor, state representative, city council, or a number of other local political leadership positions. While there are terms of service for politicians there is always someone or something to keep voters returning to the polls year after year for the traditional November elections.

From the time that a candidate first announces their intention to run for a public office the campaign to rally support from voters is on. During the months before an election the majority of local, state and national politicians begin holding town hall meetings and press conferences to announce their platform of issues and inform the community of their commitment to the political process and how they will best serve the citizenship of the local, state or national interests that they are running to represent. In some cases the political rallying seems to begin earlier and earlier each year and for those that are attempting to de-thrown an long-standing incumbent the campaigning for a November election can begin up to a year or two before the official election for the political position is available for public consideration.

Whether it is on a local, state or national platform many politicians that are running for office either as an incumbent or as a new-comer that wants to see changes in the political system, the process of campaigning to rally support is an important task that is fueled by the public perceptions of each candidate and political figure in the country. For the most part people participating in the political process as voters are content to go throughout the year with little thought about who they will vote for until the beginning of fall when they are inundated with fliers and commercials that promote the favorable attributes of each political candidate, however there are some people that are so committed to their candidate that they are out promoting their endorsements from the very beginning of the campaign.

With yard signs and banners that seem to inhabit their lawns for months before the election the passionate and dedicated people that rally their support behind one or two local and state candidates can be seen volunteering their time in passing out fliers and ringing doorbells in support of the people that they believe are the right fit for the public office that open to the voting public. The coroplast signs that are proudly displayed in the yards of these passionate people are built to last through the months of exposure to the elements and show the undying support of the candidates for which they are made. Though the cold winter months of January to March the political coroplast signs hold up to the ice and snow that collect on the ground beneath them. Then with the thaw and melting of the winter moisture the same coroplast signs are exposed to the warming sun that comes with the spring and summer, only to be bombarded with the bright sunlight and ultraviolet rays that typically fade the paint and lettering of lesser quality yard signs.

Because of the UV inks that are used on the coroplast yard signs during the production process of the campaign signs that exposed to the sun and elements of the weather are treated to withstand the torturous extremes of moisture, heat and cold that are constantly changing throughout the year. With the months of sitting in the yard of a political supporter for a certain candidate, these coroplast signs often receive the abuse of winds, rain and direct sunlight without fading or running, to allow the supporters of the political process to display the name of their candidate throughout the months leading up to the election without ever having to replace the coroplast signs that have been imprinted with the political slogans and branding of the candidates for public office.

For the most part it appears that people who have endorsed one candidate on a local level will often agree to put a second and sometimes third sign in their yard to support the state level candidacy of someone running for office as well as a national candidate for the presidency of the United States. During the last presidential election some of the coroplast signs that were firmly planted in the yards of many American homes stood the test of time for not months, but years as the term limit of the past president was coming to a close and the requirement for new leadership saw the political arena heating up for more than two years before the actual elections took place in November of 2008. As the popularity of the candidates grew stronger the competition within each of the political parties narrowed until the national conventions that provided the country with a single a candidate for president and vice president emerged from each party in the final few months before the general election. 

Before the conventions held by the two major political parties were convened the coroplast signs that sat in the yards of the politically minded supported the views and issues of the varies people that were seeking election for the highest post in the land. On both sides of political mainstream citizens rallied for the support of their choice for the presidential candidate, but in the end only one representative from each political party were finalists for the office and the yard signs of those that were no longer running were replaced with the other coroplast signs that swung in behind their political party and pledged the support of the finalists that were presented to the voting population.

While the presidential election takes place only once every four years the yard signs promoting and supporting the local and state officials that are running for election or re-election continue to be seen in the yards of their supporters and hold up as the summer weather turns to cooler fall temperatures and the November elections hold true to the tradition of polling people on the first Tuesday of the month.
