Election Campaign Poster Violations Bingo

Now that the election campaign season is over don't count on any of the myriad of campaign posters being removed anytime soon. Many of them will stay up until the wind blows them away or the sun rots them through. The proliferation of so many posters transforms the cityscape into a sight even more ugly and crowded than is usual. Also many of the posters have been hung in areas forbidden by Comelec rules. How hard is it to not hang a poster on a tree or an electrical post?  Here is huge display in a very public space informing electioneers of where to not hang their banners.

Let's see how many violations we can find. Can we get a bingo?

1. Trees

2. Light Posts

3. Traffic Signs

4. Waiting Sheds

5. Sidewalks

6. Bridges

7. Overpasses and Underpasses

8. Road Centre Islands

9. Electrical Wires

10. Schools

11.  Barangay Halls

12. Health Centers

13. Public Shrines

14. Public Transport Terminals

15. Airports

16. Seaports

17. Government Patrol Cars, Ambulances

18. Trains and Their Stations

19. Public Announcement Boards

How does the board look now?  Is there a bingo?

Sadly there is no bingo. Only 8 of 19 prohibited spots have been crossed off but that is merely from my observations. I am quite sure elsewhere in the country, like Manila, I could have gotten not only a bingo but covered the whole board.

A word about number 19 though. The category is "public announcement boards" and is illustrated by a picture of a billboard but the picture I have included is a public announcement board letting the public know about ongoing construction projects. I think it falls under the category so it's staying.

Even though I did not get a bingo maybe you can get one. Take notice as you go about town and mark off each violation you see. You could be a winner!
