Signs, signs, everywhere signs.

[DRob]

Drove from the southside of Indy to Jasper via 37, 69, and 231 this morning. Along the way, my passenger and I discussed all the campaign signs we saw. There were a lot of signs relating to local elections such as school boards and county commissioners. We did see quite a few Trump/Pence signs but not one Hillary sign. So now I'm going to pay more attention. There must be one out there somewhere!

Guess I should clarify that we did not drive through Bloomington.

Even a very large car dealership near me has put up a MASSIVE Trump/Pence sign.

Still have yet to see any hillary signs.

Trumpkins have no respect and have been stealing them left and right in broad daylight. Damn Hooligans.

I'm getting ready to put up my Hillary sign!

I don't travel a ton. But all year I have seen one Hillary bumper sticker in Indy and one Hillary sign at a house in Danville. I see more Bernie signs than any Hillary. Trump/Pence everywhere

I drive around the Carmel/Zionsville/Westfield area quite a bit. I've only seen one Hillary yard sign and that guy is evidently a big Dem fan because he's got signs up for ALL of them. Otherwise, see a few Gregg signs, a few Bayh signs and not much else. Still a few "Pence Must Go" signs hanging around here and there in Washington Township. Either there are pretty strict covenants banning yard signs like there are in my neighborhood, or a whole lot of people don't care to declare their preference in this election.

Just drove to Gatlinburg TN, and all over the area into Maggie Valley and Bryson City NC, and saw one Hillary sign the entire time. On the other hand, only saw a few Trump signs, but still far exceeded Hillary.

I wonder if the lack of Trump signs is due to theft. I know everyone in my neighborhood that had a sign up except for a single one (13) were taken on a single night during the primaries, currently there are only 3 up. Also the one that survived the primary season is gone (assuming it was stolen).

That's why I haven't bothered putting a sign up. It'd be far too tempting to make sure who ever tried to steal it got an electrifying experience.

Similar, I don't want to attract criminality into my yard.

NYT did a story on this:

When we were driving around the Olympic peninsula of Washington this summer, there were Trump signs everywhere. Not in Seattle, of course...but in logging country, Trump signs, BIG ones, everywhere. I would not have expected that in a solid-blue, environmental wacko state. It just goes to show you that "Rural vs. Urban" divide we see on the map after every election.

Our neighborhood in Indy has been solid Trump signs since the summer. There are two exceptions, and one of those is "Hillary for Prison." Only one real-deal Clinton/Kaine sign...just showed up last week.

 

[printcraft]

Plenty of Trump signs.... even a smattering of Evan Bayh signs.
I haven't seen a single hitlary sign wth the exception of a hitlary for prison sign on in a guys yard on west markland ave.

 

[croy]

I see probably 6 exiting my edition. No trump signs.

I saw my first Clinton campaign sign in a yard yesterday here in Greenfield as we were going to lunch after church.

Go to Bloomington. Lots of Hillary signs. Was forced to have dinner in one of them last night.

 

[warthog]

come to Terre Haute, right in the heart of the King/Queen Maker county of Vigo and you will see plenty of Hillary signs.

There is one right across from my house, I have peed on it many times but it just won't go away.

 

[drylkuch]

From what I've noticed we have a pretty even divide of Hillary and Trump signs with close proximity to Purdue's campus too.

 

[spec4]

Traveling in central Texas recently I saw lots of Trump signs, very few Clinton ones.

 

[Bill B]

In Lake County they are like rats.

As a general rule I would much prefer to have dinner with a Hillary sign than the sign's owner. Heck, I'd even buy the sign a martini and help it drink it.
