Joe Biden site about where there was a local campaign headquarters. I do a search and find a Facebook page for
the local Democratic Party campaign headquarters. It shows a building on Main Street in a nearby town with no building number.
After at least 6 trips through town I see a building that looks like the one in the photo. The windows are bare no posters or anything.
I knock on the door and a women finally comes to the door she says that was the headquarters from 2016.
Someone told me the only place they knew of was in the next county 30 miles away. No wonder there are Trump flags and signs
everywhere you can't even get a Biden sign unless you spend a whole day and a tank of gas hunting for one.

(17,992 posts)3 Trump signs, another on my Sons Street. I wondered why there were no Biden signs.
All small on tiny houses! except my Sons neighbor but even that was small.

(32,104 posts)I feel as though the Dems have written Ohio off.
Very little effort put forth here. Yet I keep seeing polls showing we are competitive.
Ive already gotten 3 obnoxious lie-filled mailers from the GOP, none from our side.

I'm on a busy corner & won't pay over $20 for a sign that may get ripped off. Most of the signs I found online were closer to $30.

(36,533 posts)They're starting to be more like Amazon.
It says the sign is printed on both side, too.

(804 posts)I went to etsy.com and typed in Biden/Harris sign. I ordered a garden sign and another large banner. One has already been shipped. I should be receiving both of them soon.

(10,014 posts)Our county party disbursed several hundred Biden signs at voter registration sites in the last few weeks but there is a demand for more. I ordered signs 3 weeks ago directly from the Biden campaign and received an email yesterday that the signs had not been shipped. Not holding my breathe that I'll get them before the election.
All that said, have you called your state party HQ and asked how to reach your county party and how you can get yard signs?
Bettie
(16,130 posts)and no one has any.
Ah well, I live in a very red town anyway, though they have already figured out that I'm a liberal and thus, give me the stink-eye at the grocery store anyway.
LisaL
(44,974 posts)getting a sign shipped shouldn't be an issue. Signs, flags, what have you, all available for ordering on various websites.

(16,130 posts)the campaign.
Big mistake, because I don't think I'll ever get it.
I'll check out Etsy.

(44,974 posts)Flags too.

(10,014 posts)One guy about 4 blocks from my house has a tattered trump flag on a two story pole next to his home and he put a "Biden Works for Iowa" sign (used during the precinct caucuses) in his yard after he changed it to "Biden Works for Biden". It was gone after 2 days.
Would love it if his neighbors put a "Trump Works for Putin" sign in their yards.

(35,386 posts)county but apparently Steubenville is the only one around. I will contact them and see of they have any before I make a
trip. Looks like they aren't wasting any effort to win Ohio. No Democrat since Jimmy Carter has won without Ohio I still think
that could still be the case.

(3,635 posts)The pandemic is a reason why there's not alot of on the ground campaigning, signs etc - but we need to do better.
This ticket is clearly more popular (than 2016) and the Dem base is more united, and we need to have a better show of support out there, despite the pandemic.
LisaL
(44,974 posts)There are many signs available.
