Yesterday, I counted 3 Trump signs and 0 Kamala signs in my neighborhood. Then again, my county voted over 65% Trump both times.

Which is fascinating because before Trump, Iosco County was much more equally split in past Presidential elections.

What was 2020 like? That might be a better barometer in a place like that if you compare the two….

I had to look up that county to find where it was. LOL. Pretty sure Rogers City/Alpena are the only two areas of northeastern lower Michigan I haven't visited.

I have no recollection of what the sign situation around here was then because honestly I didn't pay any attention. I only counted yesterday because it was a topic of conversation here recently.

I can tell you that in my line of work, I do a lot of house calls, and if a TV is on in the background and has news on, it is Fox News 2 out of 3 times. I think maybe once a customer had on MSNBC and a few times I've seen CNN on.

Rogers City Alpena are as far north of here as Saginaw/Bay City are south of here. This is a rapidly growing tourist area, and I hate it because all the city people come up here and take over for 6 months out of the year like they own the place.

If they have a cottage up there they DO own the place.

As far as I'm concerned, if this is not your primary residence, then you do not own the place. Just my opinion.

I have nothing against tourists, but please leave your city ways in the city.

My bad, my phone glitched and showed Rogers City. I have been there after all, to a cottage in Oscoda. That was at least 30 years ago.

Ironically, my friend just went up there today. :lol But all she brought was fishing poles, suitcases, and two coolers for her kids. Hope that isn't too "city" for ya. :lol

That’s not easy to do… it would be like asking you to behave in a more cosmopolitan manner.

I agree with bmw. It would be like TT saying he's a Florida resident.

If he’s there for 6 months or whatever it is what does that make him?
