(Final pre-election) Report from the field in Butler, PA [View all]

Butler County, PA has a 2:1 GOP registration advantage.

Never in my life have I seen so many signs for any Democratic candidate as i have seen for Harris/Walz this year. In and around the city of Butler, the signs on people's property are about 50/50 for Harris/the rapist/felon/fraud. I have noticed in the last two weeks or so that many of the Harris signs along roads have gone missing and in some cases signs for rapist/felon/fraud have replaced them, which almost certainly means Trump supporters have been taking them.

Now, I took a drive from Butler to Huntingdon county this weekend on Routes 422 and 22. The rapist/felon/fraud signs outnumber Harris signs by what seemed like 10:1, but that has been pretty much Republican territory this century. I discounted the amount of those signs because it has been the case with the followers of the rapist/felon/fraud since 2016.

The fact that there is so much enthusiasm for Harris in Butler of all places makes me think that there is a lot of enthusiasm the podcasters in their basement studios and the so-called pundits are missing.
