16. Where they live matters

Sat Sep 25, 2021, 08:53 PM

Sep 2021

I'm certain the Republicans are losing more voters to COVID than the Democrats. The issue is where these voters lived. If their home state was South Dakota, Alaska or Idaho not much is going to change next election. If they were residing in a closer swing state, Georgia, Arizona or Wisconsin or even better in a close Congressional Rep race (Iowa's 2nd district which was a whooping 6 vote difference) we may have some actual movement.
