North Carolina: Not much information gathered on my end as I drove thru the state, but there was an anti-Thom Tillis billboard about every 8-10 miles that you couldn't miss from the freeway. Saying that Thom Tillis is basically a jerk because he defunded NC schools by 2.5 million. To me, school funding is very low on the totem pole, especially the universities which are already incredibly overpaid.
Virginia: Saw a lot of "don't tread on me" swag throughout the state. A lot of Trump stuff in the southern 2/3 and then the Biden/Harris stuff and vehicles with Biden/Harris stickers came in towards DC, to be expected. VA has a large freedom fighter/right wing presence, but the north has gotten too populous and too liberal since the mid-late 2000s. Will likely vote Biden/Harris.
Pennsylvania: Only drove through the western half including a ton of country roads and also the City of Pittsburgh. Hit a deer on a winding road, it's gonna cost me 2.5k to fix that fender/headlight glass but whatevs. Trump/Pence signs and other swag dominated the country about 85/15, but there was an actual Biden/Harris presence which you wouldn't find with Hillary in 2016. Didn't see much of inner city Pittsburgh so couldn't judge there.
Ohio: After Cleveland, all I drove was country roads, came across about 15-20 Trump/Pence signs and zero for Biden/Harris... to be expected.
Michigan: Mostly drove on the highways. Grand Rapids, MI was about a 70-30 Trump and John James split. The highways did have ample signage however, which was about 60/40 in favor of Trump and John James. Still, all of this was west of Detroit metro, which is likely to see the highest Biden/Harris turn-out.
Wisconsin: Drove on a lot of country roads and there was an APPALLINGLY large presence for Biden/Harris, that supposedly wasn't there in 2016 for Hillary. Still a 60-40 Trump margin, but Trump was actually slightly losing on the paraphernalia in towns like Lake Geneva where he scored big wins in '16. Alarming news out of Wisconsin for Trump.
