Question for all. Here in upstate NY, political signs traditionally cover lawns promoting various candidates. This year, I have seen only a handful, all of them read TRUMP. It’s absolutely eerie to drive around the Capitol District and not see lawn signs before an election. Hillary Clinton is a former NYS Senator - yet there are no signs with her name.

My South Virginia county is almost 40% black.

We have very competitive debates, usually republican but by close margins.

Obama signs were proud and common.

Hillary — not a SINGLE sign along those very same roads.

Not one sign.

I don’t even know who the [d] House candidate is in this district.

Libtards are vicious snots. Who wants their car keyed or their property firebombed?

Very hard to offset the 4 borough’s liberals.

I’m from Staten Island and mailed my absentee in already.

I spent this past weekend around the south side of Chicago. Did not see any Hilary signs, and only a small number of Trump signs. Was surprised to not see any H signs, since that was her hometown, but even more surprising was that there were VERY VERY few political signs of any kind. Driving around up there, it was nearly impossible to tell that it was election season at all.

It’s true. Here in the Balt/Washington corridor, between the two beltways and in each city, I can literally count on my two hands the number of Hillary stickers I’ve seen on cars and signs by row houses. Actually I’ve only seen one of those. But I’ve seen like 5 Trump lawn signs. No bumper stickers though.

To put this in perspective, in both 2008 and 2012, virtually every car around here had an Obama sticker, the signs were everywhere and not one McCain or Romney sticker or sign.

I haven’t seen any Trump stickers and only a few signs but again this is Baltimore and Washington DC we’re talking about here. The danged Obama signs and stickers were everywhere! But Hillary?

I thought I’d see more as Nov 8 approaches but nope.

It’s indicative of some serious lack of enthusiasm in one of the bastions of leftism in the country. I’m not sure how well it bodes for Trump, as I haven’t seen many of his signs either, but I really don’t think too many are excited about Hillary around here. In Baltimore/Washington. Amazing!

I’ve seen more Bernie stickers here than Hillary ones.

Nov 8 will indeed be an interesting night.

Well, plenty of people I have seen are not enthusiastic about Hillary, they just hate Trump more. Hopefully, they aren’t all that many. I personally, do not like Trump, but I don’t see either candidate as a saint either, I just think he would be someone who would veto bills when neccessary.

Here in Orlando, I only see signs for Trump Pence on people’s lawns. They vastly outnumber the signs I see for Hillary. Interesting note about the Hillary signs — I never see them on people’s yards — just in the empty public spaces. Even then, Trump outnumbers her 6 - 1.

Driving to Tampa along the I-4 corridor this weekend, lots of Trump signs, including a large digital bilboard saying “Deplorables for Trump”. I went to a party this weekend in the very hipster area of Seminole Heights in Tampa — ONE Hillary sign. Maybe a Bernie bumper sticker or two.

But in Florida, I don’t see the excitement for Sh*tlary that I did for Obama in ‘08 and ‘12.

Just an observation.

I was traveling a lot last week and saw perhaps 20 Trump signs and one lonely Hillary sign.

I suspect that the rigged polls that over-sample dems and purposely over-sample single vs married women and also over-sample college educated white males is the answer for the screwy polling.

If they did not over-sample any group I bet Trump is up at least 8 and perhaps double-digits.

If Trump pulls ahead even with their goofy polling samples they will next move to a registered voter poll taken of LGBT college educated males and college-educated single females with 5% sample of college educated independents...lol

The fact that the college educated lean left is due to all the indoctrination they received..it does NOT reflect greater intellect.

She doesn’t need signs——the Clintons have all the votes they need...thanks to voter fraud AND a lot of help from Obama.

BACKSTORY-—Obama and Congressional Democrats——w/ then-AG Eric Holder——gave NeighborWorks America (formerly ACORN), and blood-thirsty La Raza a huge funding source for 2016 voter fraud......our tax dollars. The colluders extorted banks thru DOJ litigation/bank settlements——and the loot went to nefarious liberal organizations known for voter fraud schemes.

<><> Obama/Holder/Dems extorted banks via DOJ litigation/bank settlements——into paying off these nefarious organizations. <><>

DOJ went after CitiCorp and ordered them to pay $50 million to La Raza and NeighborWorks America as part of the settlement.

Another clause in the agreement makes it possible for La Raza and NeighborWorks America to rake in even larger amounts of money.

Of the remaining money the banks needed to pay in settlements, the banks were able to contribute additional money to La Raza and NeighborWorks America.

For every dollar they contribute, it reduces their debt to the government by 2 dollars. That’s some mighty powerful incentive to give generously.


House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) and House Financial Services Chairman Jeb Hensarling have questioned why this money was sent to the ACORN clone and the blood-thirsty LaRaza——rather than to the alleged victims of the bank’s crime. The administration of course declined to answer.

Here’s part of the Congressmen’s letter to Holder: “It seems that the alleged victims are not the primary beneficiaries of these multi-billion dollar settlements.

Instead, the terms in the Justice Department’s two latest settlements look less like consumer relief and more like a scheme to funnel money to politically favored special interest groups.”

“This makes donations to activist groups far more attractive to banks than providing direct relief to injured consumers. As a result, the settlements appear to serve as a vehicle for funding activist groups rather than as a means of securing relief for consumers actually harmed.”


So now, with tons of money to fix the presidential election, the largest and most successful voter fraud campaign may alter the course of the elections not to mention the future of the United States.

NO WONDER HILLARY KEEPS SMILING.

Have noticed the same thing too! Have been through Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Upper Michigan during the last six weeks . . . Overall about a 10-1 ratio of Trump to Clinton signs . . . about 3-1 in Wisconsin . . . Many demo candidate signs out ‘without’ any Clinton signage alongside . . . Based here in East Central Iowa and areas there were ‘true-blue-Obama’ are only showing ‘local candidate signage’ ...
Any Clinton signs are the ‘typical yard sign’, whereas many, many are the large Trump signs.
What is really interesting are the homemade Trump signs along with the homemade Hillary for Prison, Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire, and more anti-Hillary signage.
Have discussed these strange observations for some time. . .
WOW! What a dramatic time we are going through ! ! !

Just heard her surrogates, including Chelsea and Michelle Obama, are heading to AZ to campaign today. Assume they are now confident in Clinton’s victory to be now going after AZ, instead of fighting for FL, NC, VA, OH and PA.

In my Maryland suburb of DC, I’ve seen no signs for either candidate. And this is an area that had Obama signs everywhere when he ran. I’ve seen no Trump and only a couple of Hillary bumper stickers during my morning commute to work. In retrospect, I think I saw more “Bernie” bumper stickers than I’ve seen “Hillary” ones.

During a trip to Ohio and Indiana this past week, I saw dozens Trump lawn signs and only a couple for Hillary.

I live in VA Beach and I see absolutely NO yard signs for anyone. I can count on both hands the number of bumper stickers I’ve seen this cycle, most of them have been for Trump but still very, very few. My sister lives in Daytona FL and I noticed that in her area Trump signs were everywhere.

It is called voter suppression and intimidation

We either Vote now for TRUMP as POTUS or We Hands this Country over to the Globalist.

Either the Globalist win or we the Unwashed masses win.

VOTE and Ignore the DAMN Polls. The Only Poll that matters is the one on Nov 8

Want do any good for us to cry on Nov 9th if we don’t get out in vote.
