Libertarian Presidential Candidate Bitten by Bat: Cancels Campaign Appearance

Let the Vampire jokes commence!

The Libertarian Party’s candidate for President has been sidelined …. ’cause she was bit by a bat.

Jo Jorgensen had a rally scheduled in Louisiana but she had to cancel, because somewhere on the campaign trail a bat took a bite out of her.

“I will not be able to attend the campaign rally tomorrow morning … I will be getting a rabies vaccine as a precaution after having been bitten by a bat near the start of this campaign tour!”

It’s no laughing matter … these shots are supposedly super painful, but life-saving because bats can be carriers of rabies. People who contract rabies and don’t get the vaccine have virtually no chance of survival.

Jorgensen, btw, is a psychologist and university lecturer. Her campaign positions oppose the right to sue firearms manufacturers in cases where gun violence was committed by someone who never should have possessed a firearm.
