The Associated Press (AP) news agency analyzed the direction of voting in the 376 counties with the highest number of new cases per capita and found that 93% of those counties beat Donald Trump.
Donald Trump had huge support at the polls in regions with the most COVID-19 cases, according to an Associated Press study showing how voters were divided on how the government handled the pandemic.
The Associated Press (AP) news agency analyzed the voting direction in the 376 counties with the highest number of new cases per capita and found that in 93% of those counties the Republican candidate Donald Trump won.
The AP reveals that this rate is higher than other areas less affected by the pandemic.
Given these data, the health authorities admit to carrying out an analysis and reformulating the warning messages to the population, according to the representative association of American public health agencies (“Association of State and Territorial Health Officials”).
Speaking to the AP, the association’s director, Marcus Plescia, said it is still possible to reformulate the public health message to unify Americans in the fight to reduce new cases of infection.
“There is a possibility that things are less burdened and divided,” he said, highlighting that it is necessary to work so that hospitals do not flood during the winter months.
Voters were also asked if the pandemic was under control, and there was also a split between supporters of the Republican candidate and the Democratic candidate on this issue.
82% of Joe Biden voters said the pandemic is not under control, according to a national poll of more than 110,000 responses.
Among voters who voted for Trump, the majority is divided between those who consider him “completely” or “almost totally” controlled (36%) and another 47% who said he was “in control.”
The United States is the country with the most deaths (233,734) and also with the most confirmed cases of infection (more than 9.4 million).
