President Trump on Saturday night tweeted a photo of what can reasonably called a cemetery of campaign sign, apparently thinking that it showed voter enthusiasm.
Apparently he didn’t realize the photo was at least four years old.

If you look closely at the sign at the street, it reads “Vote March 15.” There were no primaries in 2020 on March 15, which was a Sunday. In 2016, though, March 15 was a Tuesday, and it was a primary day in five states.
FYI, the photographer who took the photo in 2016 called the campaign out on it.
1) This picture is from four years ago.
2) I took the photo. Where's my credit??— Alec MacGillis (@AlecMacGillis) September 13, 2020
