Where you live, do you see more yard signs for Trump or for Biden?

[X Factor]

Initially, I had seen only Trump signs but I’m starting to notice more Biden signs. Still, in the area in which I live, there are more Trump signs. Now I just know somebody’s going to tell me yard signs mean absolutely nothing and I totally agree. I don’t have a sign yet I’m equally as motivated to vote for my candidate of choice as anyone who does have one. I also seriously doubt a yard sign would influence anyone either way so I’m no way saying the presence of signs gives us any insight as to who will end up winning.

Ok, enough disclaimers, what have you noticed in your neck of the woods?

About the same number for both. It depends on where I am in the state.

The Trump signs seem to be bigger and bawdy-er. The Biden signs appear to be the generic, pretty blue, little ones.

One guy, on my way to work, has a big honking mini-billboard Trump sign in his yard. Which is an improvement as it hides all the other junk he has in his yard. Quite an eyesore compared to all the nice, manicured lawns surrounding there. Reminds me of when I used to live in Texas.

I'm noticing very few yard signs this season. It seems like no one wants to display their political lean during these polarized times. And the more upscale the area, the less signs I see - which makes sense.

On my block I've go one perennial Trump sign that has been up since 2015, owned by an unbelievably vocal die-hard Trump supporter. There was another Trump sign down the block for a month or two, that apparently just was removed with nothing replacing it - no idea what's up with that. Then near that guy, is a new Biden sign. And that's it. Strangely quiet.

This area and all around is an ocean of Trump signs and even moreso Trump flags. We're on the Gulf Coast Natural Coast (central Florida West Coast.) Over the weekend we went to Jupiter, Florida on the Atlantic. Saw hundreds, maybe thousands, of Trump flags. A Trump car parade went the other way down a road. The Intercoastal was lines of hundreds, maybe thousands of boats going both ways. At least 1 in 5 was flying Trump flags. Same for yard signs. Larger mini-billboard signs for the ranches and rural houses on the way there.

I have seen a total of two Trump signs with a white circle with a slash as anti-Trump signs, maybe half a dozen Biden bumper stickers. ZERO Biden signs or flags. Does Biden even have a yard sign?

Too bad flags can't vote. Florida is basically Miami and Tampa (Democrat) versus the rest of the state (Republican). However, Miami's Cuban-Americans are solidly pro-Trump - and protesters best not try to block their car parades because they're not stopping! Don't mess with Miami Cuban-Americans.

Just speaking for myself here, but I think lawn signs, in general, are just tacky.

My wife and I spend many man-hours and hard earned dollars to keep our yard golf course, country-club immaculate. Just a little something, granted somewhat obsessive and silly, thing the two of us do together. We really like to have a nice yard. It's more of a hobby than a chore. To put some tacky signage up, regardless of what the sign says, would be like me putting a steamy dog turd on the green, near the 18th hole, up by the clubhouse.

Even within the same city, I suspect I’d see more Biden signs as I got closer to downtown.

 

[Lucky 1]

In my part of Texas it is the occasional Biden sign surrounded by a sea of Trump signs

Yes, in the cities (including our capital, Concord) we have more Biden signs, and in the way northern suburbs (White Mountain area) we have more Trump signs. Near the west (Dartmouth College area) there are more Biden signs. In the middle class burbs dotted along the MA border we have more Trump signs. On the seacoast where it's pretty wealthy and very artsy we see more Biden signs.

A few exceptions but pretty predictable as you go along.

I haven't seen any signs in my actual area. A few in other places of both, but nothing widespread at all. All yard signs are few and far between here.

I have not seen that many signs either way.

The most Republican sign around me says "I may be Republican, but I'm not stupid enough to vote for Trump."

Biden does have yard signs but I do think they came on the scene later. Lots of Trump voters probably just kept their signs from 2016 (those that weren’t blown away, stolen, run over, burned in effigy, etc.) while Biden signs probably didn’t even become broadly available until he picked his running mate.

Washington is a strange state. You go a few miles inland or into any rural or farming community and there are trump signs everywhere. I don't see many Biden signs anywhere in Seattle or the suburbs - almost all the yard signs in my area are for local/down ballot races.

I was in a farming community yesterday in North, Central WA and saw a ton of trump signs. What this proves anecdotally, to me is that trump supporters are much more militant about their support for trump than we are for Biden.

Nothing wrong for taking pride in your home's appearance - good for you!

I dunno about that. Might be those people who get hysterical if a kid walks across their golf course yard and for which the greatest of all human rights is founded in their property value. Property value rights isn't in the Bill Of Rights.

Rural Virginia, there are way more Trump yard signs. I don’t think that, in these times, it makes any sense to broadcast any political affiliation in this manner. IMO, I don’t think VA is in danger of going “red.”

Ah, a shy Biden voter then.

 

[JqYaqui]

I haven’t seen any yard signs for either of the presidential candidates, just yard signs for the local ballot races.

Reluctant.....

Lots of American/Trump flags waving in the beautiful CA. breezes in my neighborhood.

Near me is a pretty funny dueling yards. It's on a busy street and one guy has a MASSIVE Trump sign. Right next door the guy has a large rainbow flag and now a big-ass Biden sign. I'm with the rainbow flag/Biden guy. They're the only two houses on that street with any signage. What's a little surprising is the guy with the rainbow flag and Biden sign is pretty clearly in the building trade, and has a wife and kids. I'd have pegged him a Trump guy, but he's clearly not at all.

In my neighborhood, we have several Trump FLAGS but no signs that I've seen. Maybe a half dozen Biden signs out of several hundred houses. The sign thing is way down this year compared to most. My guess is it's too polarized. No matter what you put up, you'll be making maybe half the households in this area angry. We had a long talk today with a great neighbor, and both parties pretty deliberately didn't bring up politics... Better that way. I'm sure he's a "republican," and loved the tax cuts, but I don't know and don't really want to discuss Trump with him.

You think you fellow Californians will deliver on 3NOV?

Weird you'd write that "American/Trump" as if they are somehow related....

I live in a very blue area and there are only a handful of signs. A few brave souls have Trump signs and flags out.
