    Where should I report election posters that still haven't been taken down yet from the European Election.

    There's a Kathy Sinnott poster in Lissarda in Cork which hasn't been removed.

    Its the local city or county council who are responsible, nobody else. They will probably ring Sinnott's office and tell her to move it.

    the candidate is required to have all posters removed 1 week after the polling stations have closed. they are then liable to a fine of € 150 per day and it is enforced, also all cable ties are supposed to be cut, but rarely are.

    She must have plenty of "food on the table" already if she can afford €150 a day in fines. maybe this is what the €50,000 payout will really come in handy for :)
