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.
Theres 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 Trumps campaign, ascribed the governors concerns to Evers being a Democrat who did not like the idea of a Republican campaigning in his state before Tuesdays 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.

Oh. My. God What are the chances!
More of the kind of “creative writing” you would expect from ‘Rooters’
The surge metrics are phony, but Republicans from top to bottom need to learn to explain why. There’s much here on FR to help them to learn, some of it contributed by yours truly.
It’s constant and annoying.
It’s been queued. This is fear porn.
Funding originates in the House of Representatives. Democrats control the House of Representatives. If you want more of something, subsidize it. Democrats in the House of Representatives are subsidizing coronavirus cases to make sure there are plenty of them.
Unfortunately, we have a large number of fearpers here who are helping to advance the leftist narrative.
To repeat what you have probably explained dozens of times... the Casedemic is based largely on increased testing and tests that are so sensitive from oversampling that they come back positive for people who have so little of the virus that they would never have gotten sick or become contagious to others. Typically anyone who tests positive is tested several more times, until they test negative. In most states each new positive test is counted as a “new case” whether it is the person's first, second or tenth test. This gives the numbers an intentionally false impression of increasing levels of illness.
The death and hospitalization rate statistics are equally misleading, but I will let you explain that again.
And....?
CASES SURGE!!!!!!!!!OMG!!!!!!!!
Said it months ago, the last week of the election it was going to be “All Covid, All the Time”
Republican turnout is sure as hell going to be unaffected in MY house.
Wed walk through hell in a gasoline suit to vote for President Donald J. Trump.
Only from al Jereuters.
Ah... the dreaded Casedemic because the pandemic was over in June.
Luckily I have discovered the cure! Focus on the sick, not the lab testing because seriously who gives a rip about government paperwork over people besides Democraps.
