Foley's replacement on ballot can't post signs

The candidate replacing Florida’s disgraced former Rep. Mark Foley on the ballot in next month’s election has been barred from posting signs at polling places clarifying that votes for Foley

will go to him. Rules prohibited taking Foley’s name off the ballot so close to the Nov. 7 election. The replacement candidate, Joe Negron, had asked election supervisors to post signs at

the district once represented by Foley. MORE TO READ
