This is interesting. Covid-19 cases in Congress, by party.

1. And they still don't get it.

[MineralMan]

3. Unsurprising.

[KS Toronado]

4. These percentages probably hold true for the general population as well.

Go ahead and kill off your party repugs, more power to you.

[calimary]

15. And remain in denial...

[NonPC]

5. Holds True for IQs Under 100 Too

Scary thought, eh?

[C Moon]

12. That'll be the new Quick IQ test...

Which U.S. President did you vote for in 2020, and why.

[safeinOhio]

6. Dose this apply to voters too.

Make a good research project. I would guess it might.

[essaynnc]

21. I was wondering about that.....

Is there a compilation of cases by political party???? I bet it's skewed largely red... It might be time dependent, since at the beginning we didn't know what was going on and the vast majority of the cases were from NYC and New England... But lately, it seems like most of the cases are from the red states; did you see the moving graphs of infections by state over time? https://dangoodspeed.com/covid/
It's a start.... says a lot!

26. I don't think they have a blank for that on the admissions form, but I wish they did.

[Butterflylady]

7. And to think their constituents thought

They voted for the best people for the job. That alone shows a tremendous amount of stupidity.

[marble falls]

8. For once I'm glad I got the small slice of the pie. Can't wait to see the woooo the GOP ...

... gins up over this. "Democrats trolled Republicans into thinking the Covid was a hoax to try and kill them off!"

[Arazi]

9. These are ones we know about. I'm sure more Rs have gotten it and covered it up

#Traitor and Co have a history now of trying to cover up cases

[Hortensis]

23. This. Repubs can't be believed about, well anything, but not this for sure.

[DallasNE]

10. Illustrates The Difference

Between wearing a mask and social distancing and not doing those things. Or listening to Dr. Fauci and not listening to Dr. Fauci. Take your pick.

[bluescribbler]

11. It amounts to the same thing.

Those who listen to Dr. Fauci will wear masks and practice social distancing. Those who don't, won't.

[BobTheSubgenius]

13. You have to hand it to Republicans.

First of all, because they probably couldn't find "it," whatever "it" might be, unless you did.

But, more specifically to this thread, they have conviction enough to put the viral load where their mouth is.

We'll leave "conviction" for another time. Word play is great, isn't it?

Please don't tombstone me.

[Submariner]

14. We've been watching southern evangelical right

removing science from school textbooks for decades.

This is part of their payoff. Science-ignorant political leaders.

[Arkansas Granny]

16. Sadly, this is probably true.

[Submariner]

24. NPR in the 70s, 80s, and 90s did in depth investigative

stories of southern state school boards removing the science curriculum, and replacing it with the creationists theory. As a biologist and NPR addict back then, it was a sad story that always caught my ear.

[rickyhall]

17. Karma is an awesome teacher

[AncientOfDays]

18. Backfired!

Looks like tRump's plan to ignore COVID because 'it only killed Democrats' backfired.

[panader0]

27. Welcome to DU! You'll like it here.

[calimary]

29. Welcome to DU, AncientOfDays!

And Happy Thanksgiving, too!

So much for that “screw the blue states” crap, ‘eh?

[IronLionZion]

19. As long as they get the finest health care paid for by our taxes

Republicans could care less how many taxpayers die preventable deaths.

[sandensea]

20. That we know of!

Probably similar to the makeup of the 'Velvet Mafia' too.

[Hortensis]

22. DISCLOSED cases. After all, the GOP line is they don't exist, are just

a cold not worth mentioning if they do, and anyway only useless people like those no longer working, weaklings with chronic illness, and (whisper it) non-whites are prone. Bad PR grouping yourself with society's disposables.

[Cha]

25. Rt Shocking

[lagomorph777]

28. 9 Democratic people, 25 Republics.
