signpost

On-Yomi: ヒョウ — Kun-Yomi: しるべ、しるし

Koohii stories:

1) [CharleyGarrett] 2-5-2007(231): Trees were frequenly used as signposts in those days, indicating where one had to go to cast their ballots.

2) [aircawn] 31-1-2007(66): Large wooden signposts are planted on peoples lawns, with the faces of their representatives all saying: "Vote [1] Me!" for the upcoming ballot.

3) [blackstockc] 17-1-2008(38): The republicans attempted to rig the election by placing signposts on a progression of trees saying "democrat ballot boxes this way." The last sign pointed to a cliff. Very funny, guys.

4) [icamonkey] 27-12-2008(18): [Warning: Not a very nice story] There's a signpost up high in the tree that says where the blacks can cast their ballots. It's so high up, they cannot read it. (In the old West, blacks were able to vote, but prevented from doing so.).

5) [torida] 26-5-2010(11): You always know there's a ballot coming up when wooden signposts start appearing everywhere saying "vote for me!".
