Elections NB continues to gather information into whether campaign signs were put up in three communities hours before they were allowed to.
Under the spotlight is Saint John Lancaster Liberal Abel Leblanc, a Conservative candidate in Nigadoo-Chaleur and one in Moncton Cresent.
The rule states no campaign signs can go up until after midnight.
Elections NB spokes-person Paul Harpelle tells CHSJ News, he doesn’t feel this gets the campaign off to a bad start.
Harpelle adds there are several measures they can take for punishment including a fine, but it’s very clear the campaign signs in all three ridings did go up early.
A decision into the matter is expected with-in days.
