A Logan City Council candidate who has been targeted by vandals has urged voters to be patient with election signage as the campaign enters its final month.
Rob Morris, who is standing for Division 9, had badly-drawn swastikas drawn on his signs at Munruben, along with scars on his face.
Some of Mr Morris' signs went missing.
"I was out there in the rain and the dark, and mosquitoes, changing them," he said.
"I have also had a whole heap go missing."
While angry about the vandals, Mr Morris was worried what impression the targeted signs would have on passers-by.
"It's not good for other people to see them that way," he said.
He urged voters to remain patient with all the candidates' signage in the lead-up to the election.
"I can understand that at this time of the year, people don't like them," he said.
"But it's part of the election process. It will be over soon.
"People need to be patient. They will be gone soon."
He took a pragmatic view of dealing with problems of that nature.
"There are all sorts of different scenarios where you have to deal with residents," he said.
Bannan laughs off damage
Scott Bannan laughed off damage to his signs this week.
Mr Bannan had sunglasses drawn on his face, which left him looking like U2 singer Bono.
He laughed about the vandalism.
"They all carry on about their signs getting damaged, but you've got to be able to cop it," he said.
"I have a bit of a giggle about it."
Owens: Vandals can't draw facial hair on me
Mathew Owens said he knew why his signs had not been targeted this campaign.
"The only reason I haven't is because I already have a moustache and beard," he said.
The main damage to his signs so far came from the weather. A tree fell on one at Mundoolun.
"It snapped the sign off about 30 centimetres under the ground," he said.
"So it looked alright, but when you touched it, it fell over."
He praised constituents for leaving most signs alone.
"It's a really good thing out there," Mr Owens said.
"It has been really positive."
Cowley's signs missing
Helen Cowley had signs stolen from the Cedar Grove area.
"I have had some people who must have had a better use for them than I," she said.
She said the problem had not been as significant in her area.
"We live in a more rural community," she said.
