City Trashcans Become Voting Rights Metaphors
Several people have sent us their photos after spotting municipal trash cans around town with signs affixed to them that read: "DC BALLOT BOX: Your vote goes here." We don't know who was responsible for this guerrilla marketing campaign, but obviously, we approve of the message. Thankfully, they appear to have been affixed with easy to remove masking tape, so as not to spark the flames of indignation that go along with wheat paste.
The photo above, courtesy Rachel at Project Beltway, was taken at the corner of U and 13th streets.
More photos after the jump.
Prince of Petworth spotted this one on 14th Street NW in Columbia Heights, and said he had seen several others in the neighborhood, including to the north in Petworth.
Flickr user voteprime saw this one a few days back, also on U Street.
