Swartz Creek is south west of Flint.

So far, that's it. The house that used to have a Carson sign in their yard did not replace it with a Trump sign.

Not many bumper stickers, but the ones I see are more for Hillary, which is surprising, considering I live in a pretty red part of South Carolina. I have seen a couple of people with Trump shirts or buttons, but I haven't noticed any enthusiasm for him here, outside of those few lost souls.

There were many Bush signs in 2004, lots of McCain signs in 2008 (and a lot of "Palin" signs -- barf), and a decent number of Romney signs in 2012. There were also Obama signs in 2008, which was extraordinary as this is one of the reddest red states.

I have noticed a distinct lack of pro-Trump signs. The only neighbor who has one up puts up signs for everything, including just the local elections, and he is involved in local politics and is a die-hard Tea Party type. Other than his sign I have not seen one Trump sign in the entire area. I haven't seen Hillary signs either but this is a red red state.

They tried putting some up in their windows, but a week later they'd all been taken down. Trump is that unpopular here (but it's the DC area so he and his supporters are generally personae non grata).

This is the result of:

1) The stupid is THAT deep in this country/state
2) The right has effectively slandered Hillary to the point where people are too chicken shit to put a sign out.

She said that she has seen Trump stickers everywhere and very few Clinton. I encouraged her to donate and also showed her a few websites since she wanted to get hers quickly.

..in my town. I haven't been all over, but that's what's on my regularly travelled routes. NO Hillary signs at all, until I put mine up recently. Someone around the corner just put one up yesterday.

This is in Massachusetts, of all places . Hoping the ratio will change, the Clinton campaign was pretty slow shipping the signs out, nearly six weeks! Maybe more will be arriving soon.

Haven't seen any Trump signs. I don't think there will be many, becuz he isn't too popular and those that vote for him will vote for him without announcing it. I've seen a few Hillary signs. Lots of signs for local stuff. However, the local stuff is on public property etc.

LOL - There is some guy who's advertising as a write in. But I can't remember his name.

I don't think we're going to see many Trump signs around here. I don't think it means anything. Hillary will probably carry Bexar County.

There just isn't rabid enthusiasm for Trump around here, but I still think the R club will vote for him as they did Romney.
