3. I live in Minnesota and have relatives in Wisconsin,

where I'm from originally. My elderly (95) aunt and most of the other relatives live in Door County, which is a really nice area and I'd love to visit. But even if I weren't hunkered down in my house for the foreseeable future there's no way in Hell that I'm setting foot in WI if people are going to be packing themselves into bars and restaurants and generally pretending there's no problem. My relatives, who are nice, intelligent people otherwise, are tend to lean GOP. I hope they don't do anything stupid.
