In fact she offered to BUY 100 signs for the local Democratic campaign office so they would have some to hand out and was REFUSED! She told me a week or two ago she went in and paid for the last sign they had, then a couple came in and were disappointed that there weren't any available. She talked to them and their yard is more visible than hers so she gave her sign to them.
She got permission from a property owner on a main road to put a big sign up on it, but she has not been able to get any kind of response from the Democratic office in her part of Hillsborough County to do anything about it. She is SOOOOOO frustrated with them.
She says that in her part of north Tampa there are tons of tRump signs. She would love to see more Biden signs, but apparently that is not an area they are trying to campaign in.
She also told me she participated in some marches that was organized by someone from Pinellas County but that woman told her she cannot drive over to do it in a different county anymore and that someone in Hillsborough County needs to pick up the baton and do their own organizing.
This is a woman who has been an activist since the 1960s, who fought WalMart to a standstill on their plans to build a store down the street from her, and who knows how to get things done. The only volunteer offer they gave her was to make calls, which she will not do since she gets lots of calls from the Democrats and HATES the calls. She would buy signs and hand them out, go door to door even now, and work her ass off, but they are not interested.
This reminds me of when I volunteered for the Kerry campaign and the Leon Democratic Party was only doing calls, had few signs, and didn't do much at all.
