Covid will take out Republican voters and this virus is not going away. Democrats are vaccinating

1. You are correct

All the gerrymandering in the world, won’t help if your constituents are dead. I don’t wish it on them but I don’t see how not vaccinating is a winning strategy.

2. It might be a winning strategy

Because they can frame the narrative as Biden failing to control covid

6. I don't think that will work. I think we're way beyond that. Even the media won't

fail to point out that this was a choice on the parts of republiQans.

3. Combine that with the recent special election in New Mexico to replace Deb Haaland

That showed that republicans - and not democrats - are being talked into believing that elections aren't worth it/are inherently fraudulent (oopsies, republicans - your BS isn't believed by democrats), and we may see even lower than expected turnout from COVID deaths on the republican side.

4. Despite the terrible tragedy of over 600,000 deaths, covid still kills only a bit over 1% of its

victims, so I don't think you can assume it would swing elections our way.

7. That was an original covid.

Now we have delta spreading.

5. It could swing an election or two on the margin

but you're looking at a couple hundred votes in a district at most
