Clinton Township treasurer candidate has campaign signs vandalized, one with racial slurs

CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WXYZ) — A Clinton Township woman running for treasurer has had her campaign signs vandalized for weeks and most recently, the vandalism has gotten worse, with one sign left covered in racial slurs.

Tammy T. Patton currently serves as a Clinton Township trustee. She is the first African American to ever be elected to Clinton Township’s Board of Trustees. She’s proudly served her township for over 20 years.

Before that, she proudly served her country in the U.S. Army.

This year, she looks to take up a new role: Clinton Township Treasurer. However, right around the primary election, she says 35% of her political signs were stolen or vandalized and the last few weeks, the problem has gotten worse.
