Voters were asked which three policy issues will be most important to them in deciding
who to vote for in the Republican and Democratic primary . According to R. Kelly Myers, director of RKM Res, “the war in Iraq remains a top issue, but several other domestic issues, including immigration, the economy and health care have become more important to Republican voters.” Forty-two percent of voters mentioned the Iraq war or rebuilding Iraq. Forty percent mentioned immigration, 39 percent mentioned the economy, 30 percent mentioned health care or health insurance and 28 percent mentioned taxes.
For Democrats, According to Myers, “while the war in Iraq remains the top issue, Democratic voters have begun to express more concerns about health care and the economy.” Sixty-four percent of voters mentioned the Iraq war or rebuilding Iraq and 62 percent mentioned health care or health insurance. Additionally, 35 percent of voters mentioned the economy and 23 percent mentioned education. While health care has retained its importance among Democratic voters since September, the results suggest that the Iraq situation is not as important to voters today as it was in September.
