If you're telling people not to travel than set the example and don't travel. This has been the problem from the beginning is that rules, guidelines, and recommendations are set out and then everyone finds ways in which to get a round them because they can do it 'safely'. If it's not safe to travel, then it's not safe to travel, so don't travel, and then also don't get surprised if when you break your own rules you get called on it.

The 2020-2021 election season has finally ended today (nationally at least). Anthony Brindisi (D) has conceded the race in New York's 22nd Congressional District to Claudia Tenney (R). This makes the final tally 222-213 for the Democrats, though two Republicans have died of Covid and 2 Democrats have been selected by Biden for administration positions.

Gallup is a right leaning polling organization.

Yet, they hold 50% of the power in the Senate, and correct me if I am wrong, are a majority in Governor-ships.

The Republicans will get fewer votes in 2022, and yet win more seats, if not gain control of Congress.

Even more so than Gerrymandering is the fact that the Senate over represents rural areas very heavily, and the Republican party is currently the party of rural people.
