The obvious issue of greatest concern to most prospective voters as we approach the presidential election is the still-raging Covid-19 pandemic. President Donald Trump, now infected himself and staging reckless photo ops, claims that he has done a brilliant job of managing the crisis, which has killed more than 200,000 Americans. Candidate Joe Biden has urged a national mask mandate and says “our nation’s Covid crisis is far, far from over.” Polls suggest that most voters will cast their ballots based largely on the verdict of that all-consuming issue.
