1. Meanwhile, next door in NM, 316 new cases, 3 deaths

https://www.koat.com The difference is so dramatic the WaPo had an article on it last week, adjusting for the difference in population.

The Navajo Nation is even more amazing, going from being one of the hardest hit places in the country to fewer than 5 cases a day, often only 2-3, because Doctors Without Borders worked with the tribes and their singers (healers) to stop this thing. https://www.kob.com/new-mexico-news/navajo-nation-experiencing-drop-in-covid-19-cases/5788732/ (old article, can't find the new one citing just 2-3 cases a day)

Elections matter, they are life and death decisions. I don't think NM would be faring nearly as well under Susana la Tejana Martinez (R) sd it is under Michele Lujan-Grisham (D). Pass it on, Republicans narrowly focus on business. Democrars focus on a wider array of things. Sing it loud, sing it long. Elections matter.

I don't consider non Dumdum Republicans evil, they might even be necessary. Their tunnel vision is simply unacceptable in a crisis.
