I live in Bay City, Michigan

and had to go to Detroit today. It's about 100 miles each way of freeway driving. On the way down there I noticed a few billboards encouraging people to vote for Kamala. On the way back I decided to try and count how many I saw. I counted at least 8 with her picture and things she's done, reasons to vote for her. I counted around 6 that had a testimonial type message (I'm a registered Repub but I'm voting for Kamala) and 4 that spelled out differences in the parties and Vote for Kamala tag lines. I didn't see any Trump billboards. so there is my scientific analysis of the upcoming election; Kamala in a landslide!!!!

I thought you were saying YOU were a registered Republican.

I re-read and got the message on the second time.

2 hour trip each way, farm country. Many, many Harris/Walz signs, 100 or more. It was quite a pleasant surprise. They outnumbered Trump signs 4-1. In 2020 on the same route at the same time of year Biden/Harris signs were just about nonexistent and there were a lot of Trump signs.

While putting up another Harris sign, I got 6 car honks and one car that yelled F you as they passed.I think the Great Lakes are Blue.

I've only seen a couple of Trump posters in very red Colorado Springs. It's like they know they should be ashamed for supporting him. But... I'm certain they will still vote for him, in droves.
