Heavily populated African American states, though they may not win elections they, along with Hispanics are less likely to get vaccinated. Without further elaboration if these people dying have been vaccinated instead of just assuming the deaths are among the unvaccinated is just that, an assumption. Further those states being the closest to the border where hundreds of thousands of illegals are crossing could potentially be the reason why those states are seeing increased cases because those entering illegally aren't being tested unless they show signs of illness nor are they being vaccinated or mandated to be vaccinated.
