Fort Churchill, NV, Bernie sign… (#1139)

Though Nevada is often described as a purple state – a state with strong support for both Democrats and Republicans – the Democratic support is in the urban areas and the rural parts of the state tend to be more conservative (Republican). Where I took this photo was on the far fringes of the Reno/Carson City metropolitan area and was far enough out that I did not expect to see a sign for Bernie Sanders. Fort Churchill is in Lyon county, which went 67% for Trump.
