On Thursday, an hour after media did its daily parsing and reporting of the state’s coronavirus data, Gov. Kim Reynolds held her first formal news conference in a month about the virus.

The state “response” to COVID-19 has been pretty much crafted by the Reynolds administration. Not the Iowa Legislature. Not Congress. And Reynolds was not on the general election ballot. In a mid-September Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll, more Iowans disapproved of the job Reynolds has done to address the pandemic (47%) than approved (44%), a 15-percentage-point drop in her pandemic approval rating since a June Iowa Poll, So it’s difficult to believe voters were affirming her actions the past several months.

It's also true that counties across the country that overwhelmingly supported President Donald Trump also are experiencing the most severe coronavirus outbreaks, according to the Associated Press.
