(4,229 posts)Id bet its like 90%/10%, red voter to blue voter. Maybe even higher.
Comparing states based on redness or blueness is misleading, since I would imagine the bulk of deaths in blue states are going to be the red voters also. Theres just a greater percentage of dumbasses in red states, so less vaxxed, more deaths c/w blue states.
But we have a secret vote in this country, so it's not possible to get that statistic.
However, I'll bet a bit of statistical analysis could tease some more detail from the raw data, and point in the general direction of what you're saying.

(2,409 posts)Willingly. Arrogantly. Stupidly killing themselves and their families. Or crippling them for life with LongCOVID.
Sheesh.
Sad.
Why do Republicans hate themselves
and their families?

(15,909 posts)This is a fair size gap even going by leanings of whole counties, which even in very red areas often include many Democrats and Biden votes.
