In a time of election turmoil, this mysterious display promotes a unifying theme — vote!

An election display featuring caricatures of President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden was set up in a field off Highway 90 in Little River, S.C. The same field was used for a mysterious designed Christmas display in 2019. August 26, 2020.

It’s the latest mystery display, with an election season bent.

A bipartisan display feature cut-outs of President Trump and Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has been set up in an empty field in Little River off S.C. Highway 90, in the same location where a mysterious Christmas display was set up last year.

And like that one, it’s not clear who set up this political display.

The presidential candidates to sit side-by-side with a sign in the middle. Under a large American flag, the sign reads: “America’s Future: Biden? or Trump? This is very important, vote.”

Whoever set up the display placed spotlights on both candidates and surrounded them with American flags. On Wednesday morning, one of the flags was upside-down, meant to display a signal of distress.

A spokesman for the real estate company that represents the property owner was not immediately available for comment.
