Election lawn signs

The Star published a poll today asking if election lawn signs influence people's votes. This made me realize that I have not seen a single lawn sign this campaign. Not one. This is probably a combination of the facts that I live in an apartment, I commute by subway, and I live in the very corner of my riding.

They've never really had much influence on me anyway, unless I was considering a strategic vote - then a sea of The Worst Party's colours might convince me to go strategic. But over all, I don't pay much attention. This year I've seen zero signs, and I didn't even realize this until the specific topic of election signs came up.
