The issues that matter most among Washington voters are abortion and inflation, according to a new statewide poll.

When asked to choose from more than a dozen issues, 28% of voters who said they were likely to vote in the upcoming November elections selected abortion as most important to them and 20% selected inflation.

The rest chose other options, such as border security, crime, guns and climate change. Yet none of those issues cracked 10% among the 596 voters surveyed, suggesting the elections may hinge on whom voters trust to make decisions about abortion rights and whom they hold responsible for price increases at the gas pump and beyond.


It will be interesting to see if Washington is an outlier for the country, consistent with the left coast, or consistent with the rest of the country.

From what I'm seeing in a couple of polls that have been reported, abortion is not controlling voter sentiment in much of the rest of the country.

Abortion is important to me too.
