Mr. Burke's expectations that the signs were printed in a union shop are correct.
After calling Colvin Roy's campaign office, I was informed that Impact Printing is indeed a union shop and that the sign Mr. Burke refers to does have a "union bug". Also, 100% of Colvin Roy's literature, signage, etc. is done by union labor. So, hopefully, that should leave little doubt about the use of a union printing shop. As an aside , I have seen a number of lawn signs from a variety of candidates that appear to have a "bleed-through" characteristic when the sun hits the sign just right. Just never thought anything about it.
