US midterm elections: ‘Angry, petrified’… US voters share their fears

Republicans are raising issues like inflation, rising gas [petrol] costs, high energy costs, higher crime, border security, indoctrination of the public school curriculum and other everyday issues that all Americans deal with. Democrats, on the other hand, are raising issues like abortion access, transgender rights, restrictive gun laws, defunding the police and January 6. And though a lot of Americans see those as important issues, they are not on the forefront of their minds and aren’t pressing issues, but feeding their families is. That’s why the Republicans will be taking over both the House and Senate.
