Clear Channel's response to this is that a local company bought 15 billboards with this statement and will have follow-up billboards shortly, but are wishing to be anonymous until then. Apparently this company wished to grab people's attention and they have certainly done that. I had a room full of students today wondering what the deal was and I was doing my best to hide my irritation at the billboard. I have seen one on Northbound 94 in N Mpls and one of my colleagues said there is one along 280.

All I've got to say is that this better be good because right now all I am is ticked off about. (On a positive note, a group of students were registering family members to vote at our parent/teacher conferences tonight. . . I love it!)

Today, in St. Paul I saw a red, white and blue billboard that says "DON'T
VOTE". The sign faces north on the east side of Snelling Avenue between
SuperAmerica and Home Video (just north of Summit). No "by-line". This is a
clear-channel billboard. No one at Home Video knew who paid for the ad. One
employee said that he saw another one on 280 in Roseville.

The sign shocks me and I wonder about its origins.

If you know who paid for this ad, please post. I'd prefer not to hear
speculations.
