Yard Signs - The True Poll

Should I tell him that we have our second poll in 2 days showing Virginia tied? Harris is spending millions there along with New Hampshire. Biden spent nothing in Virginia in 2020. He's gonna completely implode on election night.

Look for Virginia to be CLOSE. Youngkin has done a tremendous job cracking down on election ****ery putting Democrats at a disadvantage.

The Democratic Party of Hart Cty, GA just put up a big Harris billboard on the highway I drive every day to town. Can’t wait to see how long it takes for it to be littered with AR fire
 
In my travels in and around Bton, mostly in the working class areas, I see plenty of Trump signs but not nearly the number I remember seeing in years past. I especially have noticed a distinct lack of the over-the-top shrine-like displays that were common in 2020. The support is there, but it's much more subdued. In a lot of cases, based on what I've heard people say, many former Trump supporters aren't willing to forget the J6 riots like so many here are. @Marvin the Martian lives and travels in much of the same areas I'm talking about; I'm curious as to whether he's had the same impression.

I am out in Montana becoming an expert on this Senate race. After hearing too many to count advertisements I can say Tester is a commie who wants to give immigration amnesty to all living beings in the universe. Sheehy wants to sell Montana to big money interests and public executions for anyone who has ever considered an abortion.

The good news, the candidate spots aren't too bad. But the other spots are pure garbage. Our failure is with outside groups driving wedges wherever they can with seemingly unlimited resources.

As to Bloomington, is the Kennedy sign still up on Tapp? I see fewer Trump signs than 16, maybe the same as 20. A good friend that hosts our Wednesday night games has a Trump flag (yes, he is faculty). I see more Harris signs than I did Biden but still not as many as Trump. My neighborhood is 4-1 Trump but it will be 4-2 when I get home.

Rumor has it that some activists are charting addresses with yard signs other than PDJT and making them available to illegal alien support groups. Expect Haitians and Venezuelan friends shortly.
It'll give you a great chance to walk your talk...

I hope you're waist deep in a river catching trout and not really worried about politics.
 
Mostly hiking at Glacier, wife did not want to kayak. Today we leave here for Banff. Then we will come back to catch the Empire Builder back to Chicago.
The train trip is something we'd like to do. Would love to hear your thoughts on it.

Sounds like a great trip already with more in store.

The train is one of the highlights for me. I will let you know. We are going on the cheap, so your mileage may vary. We aren't getting a sleeping berth, just sleeping in coach. The recommendations are that is a mistake. In my youth I slept in Greyhounds all the time, so I, maybe mistakenly, assume the skill transfers. And my wife loves saving money.

It was a couple weeks ago. (I deliver to World Wide but usually come from and return from the west.) He's had plenty of time to remove it but it's been several weeks after he dropped out.
 
Btw, yard signs mean absolutely nothing in a Trump election. Outside of the rural areas I saw very few Trump signs in 16 and 20 even in areas Trump won heavily. Seriously, why would a Trump supporter put one in their yard? You risk a Zeke or Hickory lobbing a molotov cocktail through your living room window. People with Harris signs in their yard don't have to worry about that.

She is very inclusive and tolerant.

Love the one you’re with, etc.

But meaningless polls every 3 hours pulled off right wing extremist websites are clearly valid

We have made it to St Paul. Here, not so scenic. Out West it was very scenic.

For coach, the Greyhound comparison is accurate. A lot of people hop on and ride 3- 5 stops. There are a few going through, but not most.

The seats look like they should offer comfort, the cake is a lie. Sleeping in them is tough if you don't bring a pillow. If you have a row to yourself, curling up in the two seats seems very doable, some were doing that.

But the trains are very full, so no guarantees of getting a seat to oneself. Out west, cell signal was hard to find.

I would do it again, but either with a pillow and blanket or better, a sleeper car.

11 hours to cross Montana. Wow, a huge state. The locals in Kalispell/Whitefish were talking about how fast it is growing. A lot of work from home people from Seattle have moved to Montana.

Passenger rail, by law, has the right-of-way over freight. The tracks are owned by freight companies. Guess who actually gets the right of way?
 
I just saw a Harris/Walz billboard on I-69 right at the Petersburg exit. I drive this route every day and it’s the first time I’ve noticed it.

11 hours!!!!!!
 
New sign in the neighborhood - “Dogs for Harris/Walz”

Hmmm.

I assume this is related to cat-eating among illegal immigrants in preparing for a long day of voting in various precincts?

I wondered what happened to Zeke...

Trump supporters aren’t shy. They fly Trump flags at their houses and on their pickup trucks as they drive around town. They’re all about being in others faces about their Trump support. As usual, your post is dumb.

Trump supporters in Illinois suburbs are very shy about announcing their support. It all depends on where you live.
