IF, as implied, you are an attorney, you should know there is no 'code' or illegality in this. There is a 'free speech' or election law issue, cutting both ways. More to the point, if you complain, object or refuse and are retaliated against, you would then have a claim of rights violation. If that happens, feel free to contact me.
