There's a homemade Trump sign somewhere in my town (says something like "Vote Trump, save America" with an American flag) and someone posted on one of my town's facebook groups that she gets "some type of anxiety" from seeing the sign every day, as a legal immigrant, and wants it removed.

An observation based on turnout.


So you trust politicians, especially after the 2 questions on the ballot that were worded to be misleading?


You trust the politicians who claim that voting to ensure dedicated funds, that they previously squandered, will be the solution keep them honest now????


You think the polling place is the only government activity free of fraud?
If so it has to be proof there is a God who performs miracles.


Oh, and how about that rogue IRS office in cincinnatti for which obama apoligized before it wasn;t the rogue office who supressed conservative vote in 2012.


Then harry reid, a dem, claimed mitt didn;t pay tax for 10 years. Later he admitted he lied and did so to sway the election.


How about that Bernie sanders making the claim the system was rigged. What a whiny excuse!

IMO: She should either stop looking at it or let her go back from where she came from as we here in the USA do still have freedom of speech "I heard".

I trust in the results of the election and will support the winner, regardless of outcome. That's a very simple statement -- can you make it as well?

We have about 600 registered voters in my town. I voted around 9:30, and close to 200 had already turned out. That's pretty good. Most elections we get about 75 tops, although I think it is a little higher for presidential. This one is definitely getting a higher turnout. I think they had 101 for the primary.

Regardless of who wins, can we at least remove them PROMPTLY after the election?

The presence of campaign signs for weeks--or possibly months--after an election is one of my pet peeves. My solution would be to compel the local/county political clubs to post a "clean-up bond" prior to an election, and then they would have a maximum of two weeks (post election) for their volunteers to remove the signs that they erected. After 2 weeks, if there was evidence of remaining signs, the bond would be forfeited in order to pay for clean-up by public employees.

I will be picking up Trump signs tomorrow morning in NC

If he loses I will use them at the shooting range as target holders.

If he wins, somebody else should pick up those signs. Would advise against shooting at sign of elected president. Especially Trump
