While signing a petition, you have the option to leave a public comment or “Reason for signing” to express why you decided to support the campaign. Comments can also be added in the “News & Discussion” page after you have already registered your signature on the petition.

To post a comment while signing, please follow the steps below:
Log into your Campoal account.
Locate the petition you want to sign.
On the right side you will see an empty box below your name that says “I’m signing because… (optional).” This is where you can leave your comment.
Once you have finished, just press the “Sign this petition” button. That’s it!
