7. I am not seeing any clear trend here |

There are really only 2 concentrations of McCain signs I have seen in my area. One had about 6 on one street, almost every house. I think that one is down to 3 houses with them now, but I don't know why.
The other one confounded me. There was a very odd little side street that popped up a plethora of Obama signs during the primaries. Its not somewhere anyone would go except by accident, being very hilly, out of the way, and convoluted to boot. Up untill about two weeks ago, there were 8 obama signs up on that street. One McCain/Obama split household on the street. The Signs are side by side, and the Pickup has several McCain stickers, while the station wagon has several Obama Stickers. But when I drove through the neighborhood again this last week, a few Obama signs were gone, and the McCain signs in other yards had reached numerical parity.
Anyway, I did an informal survey as I drove around this last week for work. 78 Obama signs, 22 McCain. (11 of them on just those two streets) It helps keep me from getting too bored.I don't know what I will do after the election when the signs go away.
