Same here (Maryland). Mostly Trump. Have seen only 3 or 4 Clinton signs. Quite a few LARGE Trump signs too, and none for Clinton.


Saw more "Hillary for Prison" signs than her Political signs.

I live in a blue part of a red state and have seen very few stickers/signs for either candidate. On our block there is one Clinton bumper sticker. On the next block I've seen a Trump yard sign. Driving to work I see a few scattered signs for each.

I don't see any signs anywhere. Right now I'm on the west coast which is typically blue, and not a single sign have I seen in this entire area. I don't mean just my neighborhood, I mean the entire area from the coast line to further in...no signs. Not even on cars.

What I HAVE seen, however, is the comments on news articles from a couple of news stations in my area. Those comments are either on their website or on their facebook page. The comments are overwhelmingly anti-Hillary. I'm not saying that they are pro Trump, they don't actually specify that, but they do, without a single shadow of a doubt, absolutely HATE Hillary around here. Some liberals would be surprised what area I'm talking about.

The overwhelming majority of overt Hillary supporters I've encountered in this area have been entry-level government employees, subsidized minorities, militant LGBTQ members, sexually frustrated stay-at-home-moms, and widowed retired women.

The overwhelming majority of overt Trump supporters I've encountered in this area have been represented by law enforcement, the comparatively well-to-do, religious hypocrites and zealots, as well as a combination of under-educated or insecure -- and predominantly white -- men.

As far as the topic question is concerned, I see significantly more Trump-related signage, etc. What I'm more concerned about is that a majority of voters in general are fighting over a vote, which cast in the direction of either front-running candidate, is objectively both harmful and servile.

Overall it is less than what we have seen in prior elections.

Many Trump supporters are scared to get their cars damaged.
This reminds me, i did see a hillary for prison sticker in the los angeles area recently.

Where I live, it's staunchly Republican, so you only see Trump signs. I haven't seen a Clinton sign.

I was just driving through that area with my boyfriend and we not only saw lots of Trump signs, but it seemed like every house we passed had three Trump signs in their yards. Then we passed a house with four signs followed by a house further down the road with just two. I asked my boyfriend if we should go knock on the door and let them know one of their signs was missing and let them know who took it! Lol

All in all, I've seen less signs than usual this year. In my own neighborhood I've only seen two Clinton signs and no Trump (even though I usually see more Republican signs than Democrat.) I honestly don't understand why people put them in their yards. I'd never do that, no matter how strongly I feel about a candidate. But everyone is different I suppose.

Trump doesn't even bother to campaign here. I think the last time I checked he was up 10%. All I see are local politician signs.

I also should mention I have seen more "Hillary for prison" car stickers on the road compared to actual Hillary stickers.
