Klingon Text
The text provided by Waddell was written in
pIqaD, displayed on an image file. Since the grammar is quite bad and some of the words are transliterated, it's obvious that some software like
Bing has been used.

Translation
On the same image, Waddell gave us the translation:
Teach (the) city (the) constitution
I will return next time to (witness) victory.
Resignation occurs in 2014 the 31st of January.
Perhaps today is a good day (to) resign.
The final line was not translated. It means "While screaming, he speaks: David Waddell"
Yard sign

David Waddell's yard sign
In fall 2014 David Waddel ran a campaign for U.S. Senate and created a campaign sign using klingon. The words were written in
pIqaD again, saying this:
DavID waDDell ngor uS Senate which obviously stands for meaning
"David Waddell for US Senate" . Today, he is not doing politics any more.
