Presidential yard signs and bumper stickers.

I know it doesn't mean anything conclusive, just wondering what, if any you've seen in your area.

I've seen a couple yard signs for Carson and three for Sanders. Lots of Carson bumper stickers and a few for Sanders.

But that's it. No other candidates anywhere. Still too early?

Ive seen one (huge) Trump yard sign, many Bernie stickers (only a couple of yard signs) and a couple of Carson stickers. Same three as you and nothing for anyone else. It seems to me that we normally have way more at this time of year. Its weird.

Lot of local signs here for City Council etc., but pretty "quiet" for the presidential race. I suppose it will pick up as we near the caucus.




**note to self. Vote for city council today**

She predicted Romney was going to be elected POTUS based on them.

One of our neighbors kept their Santorum signs in their yard long after he dropped out of the race. They eventually changed it to a Romney.

They weren't terribly pleased with these 8 foot Obama signs we had in our yard either.

Two Bernie yard signs (my house) about 15 Bernie bumper stickers so far. One Trump, one Carson, no Hillary so far.

I wonder if people are waiting for the crowd to thin a little bit - at least on the GOP side.

I've seen a few Carson yard signs, none for any other R, and no bumper stickers for any Rs. Have seen quite a few Sanders bumper stickers, and signs in house windows.

My son said in August he saw one "brave soul" at the U of I with a "Trump for President" t-shirt .
