Here’s a good listen from a couple of wise women all Dem leaders should be listening to. I’m a former ND farm girl living in small town rural GA and totally agree with their discussion.
If you listen to podcasts, I'd be honored if you put this one on your rotation today. I spoke to Former North Dakota Senator Heidi Heitkamp on knocking rural doors and having conversations with folks who may not have heard a Democratic message in decades.

I was in hospital for cancer surgery. Hubby got sick and came to ER. He tested Covid+. I asked to be tested - yup, +. When I came home I decided to try expired home tests from 22-24. Seven + tests and finally today - a negative. One down, one to go!
