Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Oct. 18 downplayed polls showing that issues like inflation and crime are top issues for voters, opining instead that abortion is forefront on voters’ minds.

Since President Joe Biden took office, voters across the country have paid higher prices at the grocery store and gas pump amid record-breaking levels of inflation. Voters in major cities have also suffered from a record-breaking year of violent crimes, with some cities breaking records for murder rates.
