  2. The large number of Biden\/Harris<\/a> signs I’ve seen in the Columbia, Dutchess and Ulster counties.\u00a0 If Democrats are confidant of winning New York why are they spending money on all these signs here?\u00a0 When you cross over the border into Berkshire County there’s hardly any signs for any races.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
