Fox News-NORC Poll Finds 60% of 2028 Voters Put Economy First as AI Splits Electorate
3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Nov 4
Summary
60% of registered voters say improving economic conditions should be the country’s top priority over the next five years, making the economy the dominant issue heading toward 2028.
30% say they are falling behind financially and only about 10% say they are getting ahead, helping explain why grocery costs rank as the top first-year demand for officials in 2027, ahead of gas and healthcare.
Trump still shapes the field: 26% want a successor to continue his policies and another 12% want both his policies and style, while about half want a clean break from both.
AI remains a fault line, with about 40% expecting economic harm versus 30% expecting benefits; 60% are highly concerned data centers will raise utility costs, and voters broadly back tighter regulation and company-funded grid upgrades.
About half of voters want substantial changes in how the country is run, with broad cross-party support for term limits for Congress and Supreme Court justices but little appetite for changing the Constitution.
