As I said in a different thread, saw a Bennet sign in a Biden+32 rich suburban precinct.

If yard signs indicated anything, Youngkin would have won in a mega landslide last year. lol
Yard signs can indicate enthusiasm and sometimes polling error imo.

September 19 update in my swingy north Cobb County (GA) area: GOP still winning the "commercial property" sign war handily, but there seems to be a skew towards down-ballot candidates. Still no signs in people's yards.

- No signs for Warnock and only one for Walker;
- One sign each for Abrams and Kemp;
- A good number of signs for Loudermilk (GOP incumbent in GA-11; Safe R race);
- A LOT of signs for Robert Trim (the R trying to hold the open and now much-bluer HD-35, one of the few Dem pickup opportunities in the state House this year,) just one for Lisa Campbell (the Dem trying to flip the seat);
- A LOT of signs for local Kennesaw city council candidates.
the fact we are losing the sign war in Northern Cobb county should be alarming. What was it like in 2020?

Question for the PA folk: Do any of the Shapiro signs also include Austin Davis on the sign? All the ones I saw just had Shapiro/Governor while all of Mastro's included DelRosso.

I have seen VERY few Shapiro/Davis signs in NEPA; the overwhelming majority of them are just Shapiro signs.  But honestly, Shapiro selected a low-profile state legislator as his preferred running mate for exactly that reason; there’s no way Davis can outshine Shapiro.  Davis seems like a nice guy, but Shapiro pushed Davis on the ticket primarily to have a PoC/Western PA element, so it doesn’t shock me that Davis isn’t prominently featured on signage.

It’s interesting that Mastriano is pushing DelRosso in suburbia; out here in the rurals, I have seen exactly 1 (one) Mastriano/DelRosso sign; all the rest are just the standard white Mastriano signs, along with some of those stupid “walk as free people” signs.   xD
What would you say is the ratio of Shapiro to Mastriano if there is much of a difference?

Was in rural Nevada this weekend. Seems like more Laxalt enthusiasm overall but every sign was just those ones by random businesses but not a single lawn sign for a non-local candidate.  I kept my eyes peeled for a chance of a random Masto or Horsford sign, but to no avail.
Rural Nevada means nothing tbh. Normally I would doom but this doesnt phase me. CCM probably will lose but it won't be because of the two people living outside of Reno or LV.

Lots of Fetterman and a good deal of Mastriano signs in the Wilkes-Barre/Carbondale area. Some Oz, none of Shapiro. Since the RGA has triaged Mastriano, signs may not be the strongest predictor.
Now THIS is interesting.

I went back to Lancaster County this weekend to hang out with a friend and I'm not kidding--I saw more Fetterman/Shapiro signs than I was expecting. Way more of their signs than Biden signs in 2020. I wasn't in Lancaster City either; this was in Ephrata and some of the surrounding areas. I don't think it's a harbinger that Lancaster County will flip or anything, but it was certainly very shocking to see that many signs for Democrats in an area where I am only used to seeing GOP signs.
Lancaster always was primed to trend D, even in the upcoming R wave.
