Vice President Mike Pence planned to campaign on Wednesday in the U.S. election battleground state of Wisconsin, where a record high number of coronavirus cases has prompted the governor to urge people to stay at home.
Wisconsin broke one-day state records in both cases and deaths on Tuesday. State officials asked residents to quarantine voluntarily when possible, wear masks and cancel social gatherings with more than five people.
“There’s no way to sugarcoat it - we are facing an urgent crisis and there is an imminent risk to you, your family members, your friends, your neighbors, and the people you care about,” Governor Tony Evers said. “Stay home, Wisconsin.”
Hogan Gidley, spokesman for President Donald Trump’s campaign, ascribed the governor’s concerns to Evers’ being a Democrat who did not like the idea of a Republican campaigning in his state before Tuesday’s presidential election.
Trump and Pence, his running mate, are both Republicans.
Trump, facing a tough re-election battle against Democratic challenger Joe Biden, has asserted repeatedly that the country is “rounding the turn” in a pandemic that has killed more than 226,000 people in the United States since erupting in March.
Trump has been on the defensive over the virus, accusing the news media of pushing the story to hurt him.

Que the fear porn.
You hear that democrats? Stay home on election day!
Here’s a challenge for you all... can anyone find a reference in the LSM over the last two days to “Wisconsin election campaign” without it being accompanied by the words “Trump (or Pence), rally, covid and superspreader”?
Hopefully the number of “COVID” deaths among members of the media is going to spike dramatically in just a few days. Many American patriots already possess the means to become “super-spreaders”.
Is corona going to fade away after next week, or is it just too handy of a club regardless how many lives and businesses it wrecks
“Cases surge.”
What about Chicom Flu admissions? Deaths?
Has there been any overall increase in deaths in the US?
“There’s no way to sugarcoat it - we are facing an urgent crisis and there is an imminent risk to you, your family members, your friends, your neighbors, and the people you care about,” Governor Tony Evers said. “Stay home, Wisconsin.”

To which, this story is exhibit 2,100,042.
Yup. Democrats are more fearful than Republicans. He’s suppressing Democrat turnout. My guess is that Republican turnout will be largely unaffected.
What a headline and story. The story is Pence campaigning in Wisconsin for re-election as Vice President. “coronavirus hotspot Wisconsin as cases surge” has nothing to do with that.
Pure propaganda masquerading as “news.”
Fear no. Everyday folks know how to deal with this virus. Common sense and sprit .
And this is written incredulously like it isn't true in an article that does that very thing.
gotta tell ya that I’m shocked the D’s October surprise is continuing to push COVID fear porn...just like their March, April, May, June, July, August and September surprise. It’s almost like they’ve used most\all of their ammunition.
Reuter’s having an orgasm
The death rate is exceptionally low overall
Check the stats esp the demographics
55+ to 85+
Then you’ll see where the alleged “Covid deaths” are
“End stage’ elderly . . .who somehow the cause of death is “Covid”
There is a perverse incentive for reporting Covid-19 deaths - apparently there are funds attached to such reports.
That has shot accurate reporting all to hell.
Interpretation:
Don’t go to Trump rallies...
