Most Iowa voters disagree with GOP governor on reopening schools: poll

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Most Iowa voters disagree with Gov. Kim Reynolds's (R) plan to reopen schools, according to a poll released Wednesday.

The Monmouth University Poll found bipartisan opposition to Reynolds's plan to require students to spend at least half of their time in an in-person classroom. A total of 69 percent of respondents said local school districts instead should be able to determine how much teaching will be done in-person, while 24 percent agree with the governor's plan.

Eighty-five percent of Democrats, 68 percent of independents and 55 percent of Republicans questioned said individual school districts should decide.

But partisan differences emerge when asking about whether there should be any in-person instruction this year. Overall, 54 percent of the Iowa voters said some in-person learning should be required, while 37 percent said all education should be conducted remotely.

1. When there is a vaccine or the virus is under control by some means then

and only then should schools be opened for in person learning. Until then it is way too dangerous. Opening schools will be like gas on a fire.

2. Kovid Kim now has the lowest ratings of any Governor in the US regarding the Covid response.

Even lower than Trump.
