Tomorrow begins FREE TARGET STAND DAY in most communities. 
Your community probably allows the wire-framed campaign signs to be displayed on roadway right-of-ways, which is public property. Now some communities actually use tax dollars and county employees to collect the signs to be returned to the candidates, so if this is what is done in your community, disregard, as Free Target Stand Day doesn’t apply where you live.
Some communities, however, require the signs to be removed in 24 hours, After the polls close, OR the signs are abandoned, and in some places they don’t even require the 24-hour wait, the signs are free game to anybody After the polls close.
Some of those signs have pretty robust wire frames……
AND those wire frames make excellent supports for cardboard upon which to place targets. They are great when folks are training to hit targets not at the conventional distances of 50 yards, 100 yards, 150 yards, Etc.
They work well for hanging steel too. Now not alone, but I can hang my 8” x 3/8” AR 500 plate off of chains, when I tape three of the robust wire frames together. They hang well, they swing so don’t splatter a lot back toward me or others, AND they ring really well.
So, as long as the local regs are obeyed, Help Yourself late Tuesday Night or Wednesday morning (or in my case Wednesday night as the candidates have 24 hours after 22:00 tonight to get their signs picked up) to some Free Target Stands….., and do the trash collectors a favor at the same time!
Might was well have something “good” come your way from the elections, eh?
