What is the future of the Republican Party?

If the goal was to confuse citizens about public health and kill constituents, then Florida did great. Florida ranks 13th in COVID deaths per capita and 3rd in overall deaths.

 

Do you know the average age for a Covid death?   >75

https://www.statista.com/statistics/1254488/us-share-of-total-covid-deaths-by-age-group/


Do you know the States with the oldest percentage of 75 yr olds? Florida tops by far at 9.7%.

Florida also has a top 15 adult diabetes rate (not any single Gov fault here)

So would you like to do a statistical analysis of where FL would rank in Covid deaths when inputting confounding variables?  
 

This is a bit older (2022) but gives a pretty fair recap on the differences between CA and FL.  Gives actual context vs @Dr. Strangelove

Cherry picking variables by a guy who has no clue what he's talking about but continues to gaslight all the same. Florida: the Sunshine State where people move to spend all their time gathering inside from the cold....oh wait 

Feel free to voice your concerns on any specific variable.  And let us know why.  Thanks in advance

Here's the top ten, in order, of states with the highest percentage of their population 65 and older with that percentage listed 

 

https://www.prb.org/resources/which-us-states-are-the-oldest/

 

Maine    21.8%

Florida.  21.3%

West Virginia 20.9%

Vermont 20.6%

Delaware 20.0%

Montana 19.7%

Hawaii.  19.6%

New Hampshire. 19.3%

Pennsylvania   19.1%

South Carolina 18.7%

 

Here's where these states rank in deaths per million

 

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/

 

Maine    45

Florida.  13

West Virginia 3

Vermont 50

Delaware 30

Montana 26

Hawaii.    51

New Hampshire. 44

Pennsylvania   16

Florida finished second in that list for killing it's citizens.  

 

Waiting now for the goalposts to shift after destroying that little fake data point...lol

Do you have proof that the election law disenfranchised voters?  Took away someone’s right to vote legally?

 

The legacy of Jim Crow is that local and state officials could do all sorts of things to discourage a select group from voting, while maintaining the letter (if not the intent) of the of law.

I literally posted that same data:dunno

 

1) Florida didn’t kill any of its citizens unless it was a death penalty case not did any other State.  
2) Do you understand how demographics work and confounding risk factors play a role in a death rate for certain disease? 
3) Do you know the vaccination rate of Florida seniors compared to the national average? 
 

 

So again, what variables do you DISAGREE with.  You’ve just stated the ones you agreed with.  Thanks and looking forward to the reply.

In relation to the Florida election law, those would be….

Oh. I thought we were still in Georgia.

 

Florida you say? Hold on.

 

Here you go.

your proof is an activist judge’s ruling??  Do you have a ruling on the appeal to post? 
 

The US court of appeals for the 11th circuit paused that ruling earlier this year while it considers an appeal from Florida officials.

Again, these techniques are not unique to Florida and while the GOP pretends to act outraged over the accusation, they are 100% aware that these legal sounding but unnecessary measures are designed to target the people most likely to vote Democrat.  The proof is that the honest ones have admitted the strategy for years.
