A new study has graded states by how well they handled the coronavirus pandemic and its subsequent restrictions and lockdowns, showing a stark contrast between liberal and conservative states.
The Committee To Unleash Prosperity study compared state performance on metrics including the economy, education, and mortality from the virus, and examined how states and their respective governments handled the pandemic response.
New York, California, New Jersey and Illinois were among the worst in dealing with the coronavirus, performing "poorly on every measure," the report said.
These states "had high age-adjusted death rates; they had high unemployment and significant GDP losses, and they kept their schools shut down much longer than almost all other states," the report added.
States like Utah, Nebraska, Vermont, Montana, South Dakota and Florida — all governed by Republicans — received the highest scores in the study, first through sixth, respectively. In fact, 13 of the top 15 states in the study are governed by Republicans. (Montana had a Democratic governor until the 2020 election.)
Throughout the first two years of the pandemic, liberal states were widely applauded for their restrictions while conservative states were lambasted.

Nice, but it will be ignored because it’s clearly a “conservative” “committee” doing the study.
Was there a link to the study in the article? A quick glance didn’t turn one up. Perhaps I missed it.
“Committee To Unleash Prosperity”
A committee for what the “authorities” (read: Democrat Party) do not want.
Thank you! I wish articles would always incorporate links to the information they are talking about. That they often don’t is lazy, and causes me to be suspicious, even if it’s information that I think could be true.
Very true.
I will say this. From my personal experience in 3 states, Florida (ranked A), Indiana (B), and Ohio (D) this is pretty accurate. While I disliked how Holcomb didn’t step up as nicely as DeSantis did, he did a lot better than DeWine.
I was in a California restaurant the other day. I asked one of the managers “what happened to that ‘you must show your vaccine card to enter’ policy”? He said “yeah, we stopped doing that after about a week”.
Illinois and the Chicago Covid Gestapo was not #1 ?? - Illinois used their Police Force to harass citizens over made-up Covid rules rather than fight actual crime.
And they made the most money off and still are it’s a democrats best dream that ever came down the money pike.
DeWhine was/is an idiot. He blindly listened to his whiney voiced health director. She made dire prediction after dire prediction with her crying little voice and was never held accountable in public. Hope DeWhine gets dumped in the primaries.
RINO Poster-Boy POS.
Yes, he’s a total idiot. I hope he goes down in flames. I still have friends and family who live there. Conservatives are tired of RINOs. They are a curse to us.

BTW, elections aren’t the only thing in dire need of audits.
So are CoupFlu stats.
Especially NYS’s.
