TEMPE, AZ - Sheriff Joe Arpaio's campaign is staying busy this Election Day after a shocking message was left on Tempe Butte Tuesday morning.

According to Arpaio's campaign manager, several of his campaign signs were stolen and relocated to Tempe where they spelled out "F*** Joe" for drivers along the Broadway Curve to read.

Video from Air15 showed the cut-out signs staked into the ground spelling out the explicit message.

Arpaio's campaign manager told ABC15 they have been fielding calls "all day about this."

Arpaio claimed victory over Democrat Paul Penzone in Tuesday's race.
