Steinborn offers reward to help catch sign thieves

Jeff Steinborn

State Rep. Jeff Steinborn says his campaign signs are being stolen – and he’s offering a reward for information that helps catch the people who are doing it.

“It appears that my opponent’s campaign or his supporters are stealing large quantities of our signs,” Steinborn, the Democrat representing District 37, wrote in an e-mail. “Our yard signs are being systematically removed and several of our big signs have been stolen.”

Steinborn said he wants to remind people that stealing campaign signs is illegal.

“It’s time we prosecute those that choose to violate our laws,” he said. “I am offering a $250 reward for information leading to the disclosure of those responsible for this theft. It is my hope that the person or persons responsible would be prosecuted.”

Steinborn’s GOP opponent, Terry McMillian, didn’t immediately respond to an e-mail seeking comment.
