If yard signs voted, the R ticket will sweep it all. It’s depressing.

even here in blue Camden there are a shitload of LePage signs (alongside all the local R candidates). I am crossing my fingers it's simply the Republican urge to advertise their team.
as an aside, a Republican woman running for our state rep sent out mailers about something something schools serving parents which was obviously code for banning books, etc. Thing is, there has been zero drama at any of our schools. We love our schools. People move here for the schools. This woman is fabricating problems that don't exist.

The manufactured outrage about things that aren't even happening is scary. I've seen enough of these people raving at school board meetings. I'm glad it isn't happening here .

Most of the Ds have the common sense to not idolize or associate your entire persona around politicians

To be fair, someone has been going around and just putting those everywhere. I've come home a half-dozen times to find that I magically became a LePage household while out.

😂 this is what everyone thought about all the trump signs too. Those signs are put up in cities and towns with traffic. They aren’t put into random residential suburban homes yards that frequently a dozen times!

They keep assuming that anything less than cultlike worship means people aren't going to vote against their guy.

The irony of telling people they’re in a cult is dumbfounded. both side are a cult. Being controlled like a puppet

You just labeled/categorized me. Which was an incorrect assumption. Stop being a hypocrite.

You accused me of being in a cult because I don’t worship trump or any other politician . That’s categorizing and you’re not proving a point. You’re just taking offense and making bizarre accusations. A hit dog hollers . I’m not sure why you think you made a point 😂

I said. Both political parties are a cult. Never specified you:) you cannot tell people. They’re in a cult. When both sides are beyond corrupt and you’re supporting one pointing fingers at the others.

Telling people they’re “puppets” for voting is not comparable to cult worship of politicians to the point that you never think they’re wrong , wear their shirts and hats everywhere, put up flags with their name in your yard and bumper stickers on your car and attack the u.s capitol carrying flags with his name on it because he lost an election. Sorry you can’t spot the difference and feel the need to shout “BOTHESIDES” into the void

You said it was ironic which was clearly an implication that everyone is somehow in a cult for voting. That’s not a bold and enlightening statement lol

Responding in three separate comments isn’t “editing” . It doesn’t say that anywhere

Yard signs don't mean anything. If anything, I feel most dems don't bother with them because they're a waste of resources. That money could be better spent elsewhere. I mean, there are friggin' Trump signs still out from 2020. I think it speaks volumes as to who thinks political signs matter one bit. I mean, has a sign ever swayed your vote?
