Covid is surging nationwide and is especially bad in the Swing states.
The horrendous response by Trump and the GOP to the COVID pandemic has resulted in 230,000+ deaths and 9.5 Million Infections.
This is not a hoax even though the sociopaths in the GOP are treating it as one.
7 of the 14 states have a 4 week case growth in excess of 100%.
12 of the 14 states have a 4 week case growth in excess of 50%.
9 of the 14 states have a 4 week deaths growth in excess of 15%
Things look especially bleak in IA, MI, MN, OH, PA, AZ, CO.
Trump is barely ahead in OH (0.8) and IA (1.3). The #COVID surge in all of the swing states and especially these two states may help it swing to Biden's camp. Even the lead in TX is not insurmountable for Biden. Texas has a 33% surge in cases in the last 4 months with El Paso being the worst hit.
Final thoughts
People in these states would have to be insane to vote for more deaths, more infections, more bankruptices, loss of insurance, loss of pre-existing condition coverage -- which is what they get for voting for Trump and the Republican party.
So, the question to ask is, are the people of these swing states, insane? I don't think so.
COVID may be the silent October surprise which swings at least 11-12 of these swing states below to Biden.
