Yup. In real estate over in Silicon Valley. We average here at best 30% voting for an R candidate in recent years.
For example in 2016, I saw exactly one Trump lawn sign at a home in Los Altos on the SF Peninsula. And a "Lock her Up" sign, too. Owned by a self-made man who actually lived most of the time out of state and if in Los Altos for quick work trips had a garage for his car so it wouldn't get keyed which happens all over the north end of Santa Clara County for anyone daring to put up an R sign. I noticed the car keying for R lawn signs started happening here in the early 1990's. And, the rainbow and BLM virtue signaling lawn signs exploded in summer 2020.
In 2024, I've noticed a lot fewer Biden lawn signs and bumper stickers around Silicon Valley than 4 yeas ago. Lots more voters here are leaving both R and D parties signing up to be non-affiliated voters. With all voters getting mailed ballots it will be interesting to see if Garvey loses the Calif US Senate primaries will he force any hand recounts. I'm sure the Ds will cheat by running midnight printing presses and hacking counting machines to try to avoid any automatic recount and mailed ballot signature checks. Newsom going all-mail ballots in 2020 may get the Ds hoisted by their own petard in November if there are hand recounts thanks to the paper trail.
I'm pleased to see the Ultra Big D backed rubber stamp Simitian running for Congress in my representatives district may be missing the November runoff thanks to late counted ballots from Election Day and mailed ballots arriving by March 12 or so. I had fun collecting mailers from all those candidates in one of the most expensive Congressional primaries in the nation.
