I think 2 thing are worth noting: 1) what PP said.  D's did not offer "high-quality, safe, continuously open public schools."  So it's not like there's a home with the D's any longer for that.  
2)  people who are mad often vote against a thing more than for a thing.  I know we all want to be rational and reasonable and stuff, but when D's didn't prioritize education , and on top of that told parents (moms, mostly) to just shut up and accept it, that made some people mad.  Thus is the nature of politics.[/quote]

To point 1, I said that's the goal, right? And there are logical and illogical ways to try and achieve that goal.  
To point 2, you're totally right about the "voting against things" part. It's really pathetic. But how were [predominately D-led] public school administrations supposed to 'prioritize education' when teachers wouldn't return to work and many of the parents who wanted in-person school wouldn't agree to mitigation measures? What magic solution do these 'switch' voters believe was available 15 months ago?[/quote]

Schools in many other states managed to open.[/quote]

Many schools in VA were also open.  :roll:
