If Texas, Mississippi, and other states who are telling people in their respective states to forget

about masks, and open every business 100%, what happens if those states have significant increases in cases and deaths? Will the people in those states re-elect those Governors and politicians?

[JustAnotherGen]

1. Yep

It will impact frontline workers, mostly non-white and working poor -

Those aren't the folks that even GET to vote in those states.

So yep - they will go on as usual.

all Chinese

4. I can tell you what my MS relatives are doing.

I have cousins that never have mentioned politics on Facebook. Yesterday they were linking a cartoon with two men labeled Mississippi and Texas strolling down the street with big smiles on their face. In the background was a man labelled as rest of the US sitting sad and sick looking on a bench with a mask on his face. These cousin's children live just outside Jackson, MS. So it appears they are quite happy with their governors putting mask politics before drinking water.

5. It would suck for them if they received...

... far fewer vaccines as a result, leaving more for everyone else governing responsibly. Just sayin'.
