That actual study is kind of problematic. the only way they identified party membership in Ohio was by which primaries people voted in; it's not noted in the state voting rolls. This meant that the study excluded 77% of the voting population in Ohio. So it really means there's a difference in the base of each party,

Also primary voters skew older.

They didn't find a significant difference in Florida where party affiliation is registered in the voting rolls.

I'm sure there were more excess deaths among Republicans compared to Democrats, but it's hard to tear out the actual differences; that is tempered when you look at vaccination by age cohort.

People 65 and older, a significantly Republican leaning cohort are reporting 94% have had completed 2 dose series.

Now this is subject to survivor bias since many of the ones who didn't get vaccinated are dead...

AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A BLOOPER,

THE RIDDLE OF sTEELE or, THE RIDDLE OF STEAL.

The Cult 45 of the freedom caucus where you are free to obey.

But first you must be zombified and then assimilated into the Cult.

Happy indictment day, ya'll Let the Chosen one pray his way out of indictments. As in his words, fake indictments. That lead to real trials.
