The assumptions being made in this land regarding certain leaders using their governmental power (in connection to the virus) to influence the upcoming election, are true.
These specific politicians are taking advantage of this season to manipulate the people in their states. By inflicting harsher restrictions upon those they oversee, these governors are showing their true colors, having gone much further than necessary to curb the virus and its spread. As a result, the people who live in these communities shall feel these restraints longer than other parts of the country because their governors are more interested in using this time for career advancement and showing themselves loyal to a certain party.
