<div style="font-size:10pt;font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;color:black;"><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;color:black;">Esther & I drove up to Washington County around Holy Hill last weekend, and to Wisconsin Driftless Area toward LaCrosse the previous weekend, and saw <em>many</em> more (not to be political) "*rump" signs with a few "others" interspersed. Invariably the "*rump" signs were accompanied by "Back the Badge" signs, so the "*rump" campaign is using "BLM rioting and looting" as their foil to rally support for "law and order". Also using "protect your suburbs" (from "you know who"???) to try to reclaim suburban (white) women. The "*rump" supporters are totally enthralled and can be counted on to vote. Key is for those who oppose him to is turn out and vote! In 2016 Donald Trump got about the same number of votes as Romney in 2012 while Hilary Clinton get considerably less than Obama in 2012, so <em>turnout</em> was the key. It will be again this time.</div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;color:black;"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;color:black;">Gerry F.</div><div style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:10pt;color:black;"><br><br><br>-----Original Message-----<br>From: Fran B. via Lekooks <lekooks@lekook.org><br>To: lekooks@lekook.org <lekooks@lekook.org>; harrynichols92@gmail.com <harrynichols92@gmail.com><br>Sent: Thu, Oct 15, 2020 8:20 am<br>Subject: Re: [Lekooks] Yard Signs<br><br></div><div id="yiv9393094471"><div>

Seeing Biden Harris signs in front of the homes of wealthy folks gives me hope. I am stunned when I see Trump signs in front of rundown homes probably occupied by people who are the most adversely effected by Trump's policies.
