The Voters’ Voice Poll, conducted in collaboration with Noble Predictive Insights, surveyed 2,290 likely voters—Republicans, Democrats, and Independents—and explored the issues that matter most to them. The poll is one of only six national tracking polls in the United States and stands out for its sampling that reflects the totality of the American political spectrum.

Among the key findings, we saw that inflation continues to be the leading issue for voters, with 47% identifying it as their top concern. The border crisis polled as the second most pressing issue—despite a longstanding media blackout on voices calling for more restrictive immigration policy—with 40% of voters ranking illegal immigration as a key issue. Crime also remains a priority for voters, with 22% identifying it as a major problem, although Democrats cited it as a lower concern than issues such as abortion and climate change.

Polling shows that Republicans and Independents more closely align with the top issues for the race--illegal immigration, inflation, and the economy--while Democrats are more focused on social issues such as abortion and climate change.
