I'm in NC but my neighborhood is very liberal, so I mostly see Clinton signs. And lots of local election signs.

NC & almost all Trump. Although a Clinton one just popped up in my neighborhood and I sorta want to bring them cookies haha.
Even more depressing was when we went to the state fair last week and there were literally hundreds of people wearing Trump stickers. I only saw one Clinton sticker.

Trump mostly. I live in a red state. I'm not worried, I'm a Dem but I would never put out my affiliation for the public to see---too many crazies in this world. Plus it's no ones business, i.e. I don't want my neighbors to know that much info about me.

I didn't realize how many TN bees were active on here
I don't see that many signs around metro I live in, but when I go to my rural hometown it's littered with Trump signs

There are zero political signs in my neighborhood. Overall, I've seen fewer signs than expected. This is a very mixed southern suburban area though. I personally wouldn't want some crazy person to retaliate due to a sign in my yard.

The only yard sign I've seen is for sheriff, none for presidential. My neighbor has a Penzone sign in her yard. I don't think I've seen any hillary bumper stickers!

Way more Trump. I'm in Ohio. Worst one I saw lately was a trump sign that said something along the lines of "finally a president with some balls"

I'm in AZ & I see lots of local election signs. Though there was one guy in my apt complex that has Trump signs out (even though they aren't allowed)

We've seen 2-3 signs only, the rest are for local elections. We were wondering how much is the fact the race is crazy and nobody wants to broadcast their vote, or if some of it is social media is having more of an influence than yard signs.

@jmarionsmith: Yep, same here. SO depressing
NC and Trump everywhere.

Ohio. I live semi-rural and work inner city (teacher). Where I live is about 80% Trump signs. Up near work it's 100% Clinton, but a lot less common. In the area where I work it's pretty much assumed people will vote Clinton.

Atlanta Georgia. Quite a few trumps, I have not seen Hilary. It is very scary. Why would people publicly want to display they support trump? I am not understanding. voting privately is one thing, I just don't understand how would anyone want to publicly show their support for trump especially with all these negative news.
In the past elections I overwhelmingly saw obama banners and bumper stickers.

I'm in NJ in a very upper middle class, college-educated white catholic town. I have 1 of the total of 3 Hillary signs in the entire town. Trump signs and bumper stickers everywhere. I know it's conservative (fiscally and catholic) but I'm stil surprised how many are popping up....and more ever since the video tapes surfaced.
Eta - I was on the highway near my exit and saw a car peppered with anti-Obama and anti-hrc stickers...and 2 that said "f**k Islam". It was horrifying.

I live in TN - the one house along my commute that had a Trump sign removed it in the last month. My neighborhood is pretty blue, but I work in a really red suburb of Nashville. I've only seen Trump bumper stickers on cars with exurb county plates.

Indianapolis checking in. Largely the signs are mixed or non existent. This election has a lot of people pretty quiet in terms of yard signs.

@Alba4: Same here - would think we'd see a bit more Hillary support but all I see is Trump

I live in Central VA and it really depends on where I am specifically. My city is very very Democratic, but the rural area near where I live has a lot of Trump signs. I think my state will go blue since Tim Kaine is from here though!!

Connecticut suburb of NYC here and it's a mix of Trump and Hillary signs, though CT is polling way ahead for Clinton. Honestly, seeing some neighbors with Trump signs is one of the reasons I ponied up the $20 to get my Clinton sign. I'll admit I was worried about backlash, but ultimately I'm a proud supporter and no way am I going to leave people wondering where I stand.
You WOULD think Trump supporters would be embarrassed. God knows they should be. Instead, I think they are emboldened by his outright hateful messaging. It's a sad commentary on the state of this country.

@Tidybee: The school district I work in is a middle/upper middle class, mostly white, very catholic and jewish area. No Hillary signs and 3 Trump signs that I pass driving to work.
But I'm actually not surprised at all. My surprise was when I moved here 4 years ago and in my 1st year teaching I heard *so many* casually racist things being said by coworkers. Things I actually never heard at work in Texas, of all places. This state elected Chris Christie, after all.

@Anagram: Yep. Racism is very subdued but still there here in the Northeast.

All Trump. I don't recall seeing a single Hillary yard sign, though I've seen some bumper stickers. I live within walking distance of the local Trump campaign headquarters and I rage inside every time I drive by the "yuge" sign out front. I'd love to put a Hillary sign out in our yard but Trump supporters are cray.

Pretty even mix out here.
I live in a pretty blue state. In the metro area, it's more Clinton, but some of the suburbs and the rural areas are trump.
But like others, I mostly see signs for local elections more than presidential.

In my neighborhood there are a few Trump signs and one "vote independent" sign.

@meredithNYC: Same situation!
I live in Westchester County, about 20 minutes north of NYC. Our neighborhood had two Trump signs go up this summer and I was appalled, so I ordered 3 Clinton signs to pass out to some neighbor friends who were equally appalled. I noticed one other Clinton sign, so now our neighborhood has 4 Clinton signs and 2 Trump signs, but I bought 3 of the Clinton signs myself!
I will say, despite the lack of signage, almost EVERYONE is pro-Clinton in conversation. I guess they are not inspired to put out signs, for whatever reason.

Today, LO asked why does everybody draw on the Trump signs? She went on to describe that she saw scribbles on one, a snake on another and a video game drawn on Trump's head on yet another.

New England. I've seen a mix of Trump and Hillary signs, but the Trump signs tend to be the LARGE yard signs, whereas the Hillary signs tend to be the smaller ones, mixed in with other democrats running (senate, house rep, state elections).
The one large yard sign for Hillary that I've seen mysteriously disappeared... with tire tracks on the lawn where it used to be...

I hadn't seen any signs until this morning. Someone in my apartment complex put a Trump sign up next to their door. First I've seen of any signs.

I see more Hillary, but I've seen both. And a couple Johnson. Also some Bernies when he was still in.
