Campaigns did the same I’m sure. Always bad weather in January in Iowa and this this has gone on for many years during presidential campaigns. By the way everyday people in Iowa get up and go to work in this nasty weather.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

What do you think of this part?

"The Nation also contacted the Sanders, Buttigieg, Warren, and Klobuchar campaigns to ask if they have inclement weather policies to protect staffers.

A Klobuchar campaign spokesperson responded: “Extreme weather conditions have previously resulted in the campaign having staffers work from home. When inclement weather causes hazardous conditions, we make it a point for members of the campaign to consider personal safety first when evaluating their ability to report to work.”

At the time of this writing, none of the other campaigns have replied."

Or maybe you have an issue with this?:

"Responding to a request for comment, a Biden campaign official confirmed that Glad had suspended the weather policy, but said she had acted unilaterally and was subsequently reprimanded and her team was given proper guidance....

Another Biden campaign representative added: “Kay is one of eight regional organizing directors in the state [and] supervises about a dozen organizers.”"

As she should have been.

What SHE did was wrong. Let's not paint an entire campaign as doing this wrong thing, when it was really was the one person.

canvassers from the Warren and Sanders campaigns come to our house. My husband was having a fit trying to keep people off of walkways that were icy beneath ever falling new snow. He's particularly furious about one woman who shows up to stuff Warren brochures in the door. The weather is still lousy and is expected to be the same for a good part of next week.
