PETITIONING IN THE PANDEMONIUM OF PANDEMIC
As reported by Virginia Mercury, on March 17, 2020, the same day that Governor Ralph Northam issued Executive Order 53, amended March 20, 2020, municipalities conducting elections in May, were permitted to submit ballots by mail, and “A bill just passed by the General Assembly will allow 45 days of excuse-free early voting for the November election, allowing anyone to vote by mail in the presidential election. Northam is expected to ...sign that bill, which will go into effect July 1.”
The first case of COVID-19 infection in Virginia occured on February 28, 2020, but on March 13, 2020, four days before the emergency order, Senator Mark Warner announced that he had successfully qualified to appear on the ballot for re-election in 2020, implicitly admitting that he had placed over 33,000 Virginians at risk of infection, along with his dedicated volunteers who donated their time, effort and energy to support his campaign, which, to that date, had raised over $7 million, to which one of the wealthiest men in Congress had not contributed even one dime. Warner ceremoniously cancelled all public events only after securing his position on the ballot.
Congressman Don Beyer, despite being very critical of the President regarding his failures in getting ahead of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, on January 14, 2020 was conducted training for his volunteers to solicit signatures so that he might qualify on the ballot, but no volunteer received any instructions on avoiding infection or infecting others with the novel virus.
And, on March 27, 2020, ten days after the enactment of the emergency order, Don Beyer announced his victory in the VA 8th Congressional District Democratic Committee primary, in which he ran unopposed.
Like Beyer’s volunteers, Major Mike Webb must solicit at least one thousand valid signatures to qualify to appear on the November ballot, and has a deadline of June 5, 2020 at 7:00 p.m., but, despite the fact that the Virginia State Board of Elections is doing everything it can to ensure that the elections proceed as scheduled, they have refused to make any accomodation to independent candidates who must attempt to collect signatures during a pandemic crisis, after even the Governor has issued an additional lockdown order, recommending that all citizens shelter in at home, and not go out in public, to avoid infection.
SERVICE ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY? SO SAYS JOE BIDEN
Joe Biden, whose candidacy has been supported by Ralph Northam, Senator Mark Warner, and Congressman Don Beyer believes that Captain Brett Crozier should not have been relieved from command, and agrees with the World Socialist, that he is a hero, who was looking out for the lives of sailors, when he determined that military housing on Naval Base Guam was wholly inadequate for the one hundred percent of his crew had... been infected by COVID-19, on the same day, according to USNI News, that he demanded the military to acquire empty hotel rooms in Guam. Perhaps the difference is it's only government money during a pandemic, and is not like they are staying at the Trump Hotel. I'm still not certain how that science worked, removing crew assumed to be infected to hotels so they won't infect each other in shared restroom facilities.
Who cares if those resources could have addressed readiness problems that have resulted in aviation crashes? Perhaps if it's not military spending on defense that progressives prefer to be spent on social programs, it is a good thing to redirect the funding.
But from a big world national security perspective, is it concerning at all that Daily Mail is more concerned than senior officers who appeared to believe that they had so many unfit and elderly soldiers that many would actually die from COVID-19?
During the Spanish Flu Pandemic, a deadly infectious disease, 47,000 American soldiers died, while 53,000 died from war related injuries, and not even one got a hotel room to avoid it.
