Coronavirus Deaths Are Hurting Republicans
Political Wireby Taegan Goddard

Political scientists Lynn Vavreck and Christopher Warshaw have found a rise in coronavirus-related deaths in a given community tends to reduce support for Republicans.

“Republicans running for the U.S. House and Senate lose just as much support as Mr. Trump does when deaths rise locally. It may feel as if all politics is national, but it is not.”

“Research shows that when people are killed in action during wartime, residents of the place the victims are from tend to hold elected leaders in Congress and the White House accountable. Political scientists have found this to be true for midterm and presidential elections during the Civil War, the Vietnam War, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Coronavirus-related deaths seem to be having a similar effect.
