Vote No on Proposition 509!

I have been seeing a lot of posters and signs up lately for the different propositions we will be voting on in Arizona this November. I am only aware of the one about marriage (102). I guess I have some research to do between now and Election Day.

But what I would really like to do is add to the confusion! Each street corner seems recklessly ornamented with various signs and opinions (Vote Yes on Propositioin 102! Vote No on Proposition 201! And so on.) Wouldn't it be fun to add to the chatter? Something absurd?

It would be easy just to make up a sign, such as "Vote No on Proposition 509!" I am not aware of any such proposition and it would give me great glee to imagine all the people inquiring about it at their library or looking anxiously for it on the ballot on Election Day.

Better yet would be to photoshop the head of some celebrity and put it on the sign. And then have him say something absurd in defending his vote. I can see Chuck Norris' face and a bubble next to it with the following words:

"Vote NO on Proposition 509. A penguin can't be President!"

or maybe

"Vote NO on Propositiion 509. They're not putting hamsters in my damn tacos!"

I wonder if any of this is illegal?
