How long did it take to get a Harris-Walz yard sign after ordering? I bought one from the KamalaHarris.Com website

early on, but my order never went through for some reason. Then right after the debate I ordered a new one. It's been almost 2 weeks but it hasn't been shipped yet.

I saw other people complaining about how long it took to get a sign or they haven't gotten theirs yet.

I saw Amazon has a ton of signs for sale and wondering if I should get one, if it will come more quickly. Or how scammy these Amazon sites are.

Any advice?

2. As with anything else, set yr reviews on amazon to 4 stars and above when you search for Harris yard signs.

It will also show you the “seller rating” at the same time so you will know if the seller is reliable.

I see several products at vendors at 4 to 5 stars. Amazon will indicate when you can expect the sign to arrive.

Hope you get one soon!

Democratic office has a large stock on site. Have you been to one in your county? Actually was a positive fun visit to be around people with brains and laughter.
Good luck, hope you get one planted ASAP.
Cheers

We picked ours up from the local party office. They admitted that they had to have them printed locally because the national campaign was taking so long.

7. Our party printed them local. The Texas Democratic Party is now printing cheap ones. (Mylar and/or laminated)

However, you can't buy from them, but the local parties are buying from TDP. Our party purchased for the polls because we are making our own.

5. In my area, the other two main positions - Congresscritter & Senator - very important,

were problematical in terms of efficiency and especially responsiveness. Starting in August, I sent emails to both campaigns' websites "info@email". Zero response. In the following weeks I added the County party's email and the emails ended up totaling 4. Nothing. Finally during one of the phone outreaches from the County I got somebody who was able to deliver on the Congresscritter's sign. Nothing from the Senator, and nothing about finding a local contact for the national campaign.

Then last week I finally saw a National sign in my town and stopped to ask where they got it. Turned out it came from the next door County Dems and when I called them they said they had printed it themselves. But my local person with the sign called her source who called me back a couple of days later. Turned out it was the same people who originally provided the Congresscritter sign, and they now said they were printing up the other two campaigns for a donation of $30 each. So finally got them all up now in the 3rd week of September.

I've got a fence at a high traffic and visibility street that comes to a standstill during "rush" hours and highly travelled otherwise, so it was a good sign when we were putting up the signs and got approving honkings.
