There actually seems to be research showing that Political Yard signs can induce a swing of 1 to 2 points. In the current hyper-partisan environment this can make the difference.

Your comment reinforces the point I am making - people are easily swayed by the inconsequential

You: Do communal engagements in a society matter? No, they are inconsequential. I am very smart.

Are you seriously suggesting putting up a lawn sign is communal engagement? Is a t-shirt with a slogan social discourse?
