With Election Day exactly two weeks away, Republicans and Democrats are weighing in on the issues that matter to them. A recent Gallup poll had voters rank the most important issues.
The survey asked 1,023 U.S. adults by phone to list 22 key issues from extremely important to not important. The poll had a margin of error of +/- 4%.
Voters were told to put 22 topics in various categories from extremely important, all the way down to not important.
The economy was No. 1 for Republicans, with 66% viewing it as extremely important. Immigration was No. 2, at 63%, followed by terrorism/national security, at 60%. Crime came in at No. 4, with 52% of respondents viewing it as extremely important. Taxes rounded out the top five, at 46%.
Contrast those numbers and results with Democrats who took the survey. Democracy in the United States came in as the most important issue at 58%. No. 2 was the types of Supreme Court justices that the candidate would pick, 57%. Abortion came in at No. 3 with 49% of Democrats viewing it as extremely important. Rounding out the top five were health care and education.
The poll also showed 95% of Republicans said they agreed with former President Donald Trump on the issues that mattered most to them. Meanwhile, 92% of Democrats said they agreed with Vice President Kamala Harris on the key issues.
