In the October 2018 survey I did, the top five issues for Democrats were health care (30 percent), Social Security (10 percent), income inequality (7 percent), racism (6 percent) and climate change (6 percent). We’ve heard something on health care and inequality, but less on Social Security, racism or climate change, though we’re getting a climate question now.
