GRAND HAVEN TOWNSHIP -- The Grand Haven Township couple who came under scrutiny about a month before the presidential election for hanging empty chairs in their front yard discovered an unwelcomed addition to their display of political signs, American flags and empty chairs this morning.
Ken and Judy David, who live across from an elementary school on Comstock Street, found a white outdoor chair marked with 4 more years, racist pig and other profanities at the end of their driveway the morning after the election. The chairs back, right leg was nailed to the Davids driveway, as the other back leg remained airborne.
Its not nice, Ken David said to his wife when they found the chair before 9 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7.

At least they didn't crucify a chair to his trees like the cat. Cats got abused this year.
