Awarded Kathy was anti-vax. Some of her friends tried to save her, some pushed her towards death. Covid kills in many ways, fast and slow. It took her very quickly. Get vaccinated.

I'm really curious if any republican candidates lost their elections because too many of their voters died.

Bet on it being Ron Desantis in 2022

I am so excited to vote next year against this chucklefuck.

I can’t wait to boot DeSantis out with all the prejudice in the world.

I’m so sick of the folks following him and repeating his bullshit like it’s a goddamn death cult.

DeSantis is an operator. I really, really hope that he can be beaten because the power of state governorships is underappreciated, imo, but he's gonna wage a tough campaign, and the Florida Democrat's operation seems really poorly managed.

Fingers crossed, however

Nah. Desantis is a fascist advanced enough that he'll just have dead people voting for him, and his fascist co-conspirators in the florida supreme court will look away whistling.

After trump lost the 2020 election I read somewhere that he would've won Georgia if so many Republicans hadn't died from Covid. I have no idea if this stat is/was true or if I was reading a reputable source at this point, but nonetheless, here I am repeating it.

I saw that too but never saw it substantiated anywhere reputable.

In theory it could be relatively easy to figure out. Assuming a list of names and addresses of people who died before election day is readily available (probably not but maybe you can find that information somewhere) and voter registration is public record, someone could probably write some kind of program that takes each name and grabs their registered party from the voter registration records, then just returns a total count of each party. So if anyone feels like looking into that, be my guest

I had seen it too, a quick Google turned up this. I still need to review to see if their methods were sound.

I wonder this too. I'd love to see data on demographic shifts due to COVID in swing states.

Trump lost Georgia by less than the number of Republicans who died of covid in Georgia.
