Abortion jumps to 2nd most important issue behind inflation. Ballot choice is 41% repub 41% deml

https://www.foxnews.com/official-polls/fox-news-poll-record-55-disapprove-scotus


Inflation remains at the top of the issue list, with 41% citing it as the most important for their vote. But with only three months left until Election Day, abortion has emerged as the second most important issue, albeit far behind rising prices at 14%. There is a three-way tie between border security, climate change and guns (7% apiece) for third.

In June, abortion was in third place at 10%, behind guns (12%) and inflation (41%).

Overall, voters split on their ballot choice for the midterms: 41% for the Democrat vs. 41% for the Republican. Inflation voters go for the Republican congressional candidate by 29 points, while abortion voters prefer the Democrat by 36 points.
