I’m old enough to remember when people criticized me for making this obvious observation after meticulously tracking it for months.

According to @KFF, Republicans are 3.5x more likely to be unvaccinated than Democrats.

For comparison, here's how this compares with my data which shows that the *most Democratic tenth of the country* has vaccinated 61% more of its population than the *most Republican* tenth. Image
These are two different types of data but they tell the same story.
Now combine this with the data showing that unvaccinated adults are 11x more likely to die of COVID than vaccinated adults. usnews.com/news/health-ne…
(No, this does NOT mean you can simply multiply 3.5 x 11…that would mean 38.5x as many Republicans have died of COVID this year than Democrats, which seems a wee bit unlikely.)

📣📣 It's been several months, so it's time once again to look at the *county-level* COVID vaccination rates of all 50 states by 2020 partisan lean.

As always, these graphs only include county residents who've received 2 Pfizer/Moderna or 1 J&J dose (boosters not included yet).
📣📣 Other important caveats:

--Every state has a small percent of total vaccinated residents whose county of residence is unknown; those aren't included here.

--The vaccination rates are out of the TOTAL population, not just adults/over 12/over 5.

📣 NEW enrollments are running 8.3% lower vs. last year (when adjusted), which isn't too surprising given over 2M people enrolled mid-year via the COVID SEP:

Overall this is an excellent OpEd, but the irony is that he STILL doesn’t fully get it: 1/
He’s shocked that the SDs didn’t automatically vote for the candidate who won the state, but the ENTIRE POINT of SDs was to give them a level of veto power over a potentially extreme candidate. If the GOP had a similar system in 2016, Trump may not have gotten the nomination.
And that was hardly a “dirty trick.” The SD system had been around for decades, was well-known, and it had even been partly designed BY BERNIE SANDERS’ CAMPAIGN ADVISOR.
