Gracey Van Der Mark's sign is way too big

And she's a lunatic.

So I was driving home last night, when I pulled off the La Paz exit and was greeted by the above monstrosity.

It’s a sign.

A big sign.

A HUGE sign.

A REALLY HUGE sign.

An (cough) unambiguously illegal sign.

The candidate, Gracey Van Der Mark, is a QAnon sympathizer and right-wing conspiracy theorist who fought to ban books on the Huntington Beach City Council and was all in on the MAGA library plaque. When I say she’s an unstable nut, I’m not exaggerating. To put it in the clearest terms: She’s a pro-ICE raids Latina. [In other words, support Chris Kluwe—a good dude with a normal head]

She’s also working her ass off to have voters forget she’s three pennies short of a dime, and wants everyone to see her as a pet-loving, sunshine-embracing populist.

Hence, the sign.

Which, again, is illegal.

Why?

Multiple reasons.

First, in the city of Laguna Hills, there is a (fairly standard) Public Right-of-Ways law. Meaning, signs may not be placed in public rights-of-way (like medians or sidewalks) if they obstruct traffic visibility or create a safety hazard. Which this 100 percent does.

Second, the sign is gimantic. I measured it, and it’s 34-square feet—far too beefy for signs along highways or in larger commercial areas.

Third, signs must be placed in a way that does not block the "sight visibility triangle" at street intersections. This one does exactly that.

Worst of all, again, Gracey sucks. Like, sucks in profound ways.

So, thanks to Chat GPT, I’ve fixed the sign …

No charge, girl.

No charge.
