Almost think this is a desperate attempt to overcome the negative feelings the gov, and by extension all D's, are attracting from people of all political beliefs relative to her covid response.

Looks that way.
1. It's state level (B Team);
2. It's a new version of previously dismissed charges as to several Defendants;
3. Facts are really old -- significantly decreases dependability/veracity of witnesses
But one question I have is, why did they dismiss without prejudice and refile rather than just issue superseding indictments? That makes the whole thing look pretty flawed. I don't know about you, but if I'm on a jury and someone tells me the prosecution previously dropped the charges, I'm thinking there's something lacking here, and the defendants charged twice are being unfairly forced to pay for counsel and go through the process twice.
