MILWAUKEE – Wisconsin voters sounded off on what they consider the most important issues heading into the midterm elections, with most telling Fox News that the economy and climate change were top priorities. "Inflation is out of control," Matt, from Wisconsin, said. "We gotta get gas prices down because I don’t want to be paying that much at the pump." Inflation, which nationally hit a 40-year-high of 9.1% in June, was the top issue for registered Wisconsin voters, with two-thirds saying they were "very concerned" about soaring prices, according to an August Marquette University survey.
Gun violence and crime followed closely behind, while 41% said they were very concerned about climate change. "It’s getting kind of scary," London, a Democrat from Milwaukee, told Fox News, citing climate change as her top priority.
She said her concerns are apparent considering the flooding following Hurricane Ian and that several regions facing severe droughts.
