Ramsey County sets no sign rule, but Minnesota law overrides city limits during elections: Minn. Stat. 211B.045 lets you post noncommercial signs of any size, in any number, from 46 days before the state primary until 10 days after the general election. Cities may regulate size/number only outside that window.
Political (noncommercial) signs are governed by state statute and city sign codes, not by Ramsey County. Minn. Stat. 211B.045 preempts local restrictions during the election season: from 46 days before the state primary in a general-election year through ten days after the general election, noncommercial signs of any size may be posted in any number on private property. Outside that period, cities such as St. Paul (sign code Chapter 64) may regulate the size and number of noncommercial signs. Signs may not be placed on public rights-of-way, boulevards, or MnDOT roadsides.
Cities may remove signs placed in public right-of-way or that violate off-season size/number limits. During the protected statutory window, city size and number limits are unenforceable against noncommercial signs.
