As the country inches closer to Election Day, voters are honing in on issues that may decide the fate of Congress and several state governments in November.
The Washington Examiner is tracking which issues are on the top of voters' minds as they prepare to head to the polls, particularly in key battleground states that could bring a shift in power to the federal government. Specifically, we’re tracking how voters are researching our top five issues — abortion, crime, education, inflation, and taxes — and how these interests fluctuate as we get closer to Election Day.
Meanwhile, Sen. John Hoeven is seeking to fend off a challenge from Democratic opponent Katrina Christiansen , with the race expected to lean in the incumbent’s favor. Lower down the ballot, Republican Michael Howe is running uncontested for North Dakota’s secretary of state.Education emerged as the top-researched issue among North Dakota voters in mid-September and alternated with crime as the No.
The issue of crime has become a focal point of the North Dakota Senate race as candidates have offered different solutions to the state’s rising crime rate. Candidates have wrestled with how to address gun violence and gun control in the state, with Hoeven decrying moves to limit gun ownership and has instead argued to enforce existing gun laws more harshly.
Abortion has also shaped the state’s Senate race, with Hoeven and Christiansen finding each other on opposite sides of the issue. While Hoeven has expressed support for a federal abortion ban, Christiansen has called for codifying Roe v. Wade into law to ensure nationwide abortion access.Inflation remained one of the lowest-searched topics over the last month, receiving a spike in interest on Sept. 18 and Oct. 2 before falling back to No. 4 as of Oct. 10.
