great concept guys……
Design is a big weak and the image is 150 not 300 dpi, BTW, but keep it up!
This is in St. Louis down on the Delmar Loop. I saw it days ago and knew it had to come from NY. I’m going to plaster them all over on Election Day for the non voters and kiddies. Fun concept.

you should set up a flickr site for these pictures
This is a great concept! I love it. This is truly creative activism.
I was inspired by your work …just spotted it yesterday an blogged about it today.

Isn’t really representative, though an interesting concept. You’re assuming that gum chewing and putting gum on a wall is relatively universal though… seems a bit more for the young and/or lower class, which we all know favor Obama anyways
It was the 57th presidential election, just saying. Also, the posters may have caught the attention of more Obama supporters as opposed to Romney’s because the images depicted resemble Obama’s hope campaign from 2008. Great concept though, I look forward to seeing another come 2016.
Hey – are you going to get this up and running for 2016? I have an army of friends willing to help plaster lower Manhattan with your permission.
I emailed you earlier.
