If I remember correctly this was from a study that looked at a window of a few weeks, ignoring all the data before and after that window. I think it was like 3 weeks (that may not be correct). It was put out in Oct. (I think) but when you went to the actual data, it was from a very small window in May.
This doesn't touch on the fact that the CDC changed the testing rate and testing protocol for Vaxxed or Not vaxxed, which will also skew the data (a ton).
How to lie with math:
Same as how you lie with any other piece of "truth:" take out all the parts that go against your narrative, i.e. contextual lies.
More Republicans are older. They die more often and statistics is a great way to lie. Simple statistics are often lies. In order to to really know, you would need to take into account the average age of each voting block, and compare each block to their typical death rates. I bet you that if covid didn't exist this graph would still show that trump voters die more often. Since they are older.
Hi OP, other than the flawed data collection for this study which has already been pointed out, I would add that republican counties also have many democrats living in them, up to 49% in some cases, much like democrat counties also have republicans living in them. So, an alternative explanation is that all these democrats, that are living in Trump counties, took the vax and died. Since this data doesn’t break it down by the individuals who actually died and only by county level, this explanation is equally plausible.

Math doesn’t lie people do.

Does that mean HIV/AIDS is the Democrat virus?

Fair enough, replace 49% in my comment with 40%, the rest of it and the point still stands.
