Following last weekѻýs crude and racist election sign vandalism, one particular candidate has been hit hard once again.
ѻýOur hard-working sign crew was busy repairing more vandalized signs,ѻý Vernon-Monashee NDP candidate Harwinder Sandhu said Wednesday, Oct. 21.
More of the orange signs have been slashed, broken and ripped from the ground around the riding.
Shuswap NDP candidate Sylvia Lindgren also reports several campaign signs have recently been damaged or removed.

Some of Vernon-Monashee Green candidate Keli Westgateѻýs were also reported vandalized.
This weekѻýs damage follows a particularly concerning act of vandalism Oct. 16 where Sandhuѻýs sign was spray-painted with a swastika, the ѻýC-wordѻý and scribblings over an image of her face.
Voter Herbert Brown said he isnѻýt an NDP supporter, but heѻýs upset over these acts of vandalism.
ѻýTampering with election signs is wrong no matter which party. Illegal as well and I hope the culprits are caught,ѻý Brown said in response to a Facebook post.
