    Anecdotal yard sign metric from western PA, there’s fewer signs in yards than the last two presidential elections. Though quite a few of the repeat Trump yards have definitely become more… colorful.

    What stands out to me are there are yards where they’ve got local Republicans signs, but no Trump signs. Not a lot of these but they’re there.

    What this all means is vote

      I was feeling this way until a month ago, and now they are every dang place here in the SE. We’ve got lots grouped between Trump and the down ballot folks. Many more of the huge signs, lots of farmers with multiple giant signs and custom painted Trump trailers and heavy machinery holding up big flags and signs. Trump signs in front of businesses, which seems especially odd to me, as I don’t know why you’d want to alienate half your customer base. Driving some of the back roads around here make it very depressing how much Trump stuff there is.

      There are fewer Dem signs, but more than I remember from prior years. We cleared out the MAGA school board people around here though last year, so I’m hoping the lefties are still motivated, just not publicly jamming their support in everyone’s face like the MAGAs feel obliged to.

      I can’t wait to turn in my ballot this weekend. On the plus side, someone convinced my brother to vote for the first time ever also, so that’s one new vote against him.
