Reuters/Ipsos polls: Economy tops list of worries facing American voters
None
WASHINGTON - The economy, terrorism and healthcare ranked as the top three concerns facing Americans casting ballots in Tuesday's presidential election, according to an early reading from the Reuters/Ipsos Election Day poll.
The poll of about 35,000 people found that 25 percent of voters picked the economy as the "most important problem." Another 14 percent named "terrorism/terrorist attacks" and 13 percent picked healthcare.
By contrast, the economy was the No. 1 concern for 46 percent of American voters in 2012, according to the Reuters/Ipsos national tracking poll four years ago. Almost nobody listed terrorism as a top concern in 2012, and 8 percent listed healthcare as the top worry.
A signature Trump issue, immigration, was chosen by 7 percent of voters as the most important issue in Tuesday's poll.
