(19,038 posts)I live in Conservative West Michigan. Suburban Grand Rapids.
Neighbor across the street has been really unfriendly the whole time I lived here. I was walking my dog one evening and her dog was off the leash and came charging at us and our dogs had a 2 second scrap, her dog bit my dog in the shoulder where she just had surgery and my dog bit her dog in the throat requiring stitches. A couple days later the lady comes running out when I'm walking my dog again asking if my dog had its shots, it turns out the lady didn't even know we lived across the street. I assured her my dog had its shots and apologized that her dog was injured, but reminded her that her dog should have been leashed.
Well a week later, my Joe Biden sign came and I put it out in the yard. That evening I was doing some gardening in the front yard and the same lady comes running across the street with a big smile on her face. She's a Dem and was thrilled to see a Biden sign in the yard. We talked for a few and she was the nicest lady and really invested in the election. She said she had ordered her sign and was waiting for it to arrive. A couple weeks later her sign came, and so did the Biden-Harris signs for the 3 houses next to hers. So on our little block we now have 5 or 6 Biden signs, almost in a row, and 0 Trump signs! Really thought it would be 50-50. In fact, in my subdivision of about 60 houses, I see 0 Trump signs to about 10 Biden signs so far.
