This is an issue in the race for one of Virginia's congressional senate seats. Incumbent Mark Warner's opponent is Daniel Gade, a retired Army Lt. Colonel whose right leg has been amputated due to action seen as a tank commander (he had been wounded before and returned to the field.) He refers to wearing a mask as “ridiculous,” “tyranny” and “the touch of government on your face.” Democrats are running TV ads claiming that Warner "believes in science."
