[Democrats prepare for the first round of debates. With 20, yes 20, Democrat candidates covering the issues that matter to their followers, you can be sure that you will hear the hot topics that Democrats are known for covering. But what do Democrat voters think should be covered in the debate? A recent poll gives a snapshot of what Democrat voters are wanting to hear about in the debates. Here are also some other findings:]
- Roughly 3 in 5 Democrats said it was “very important” for the 2020 contenders to discuss climate change, gun policy and recent abortion legislation.
- A 22% plurality of Democrats said health care was the top policy area that should be debated on the stage.
- 33% of Democrats expect former Vice President Joe Biden to perform best over the course of the two days, illustrating the stakes for the front-runner.
As 20 of the Democratic presidential contenders prepare for the party’s first primary debates, a new Morning Consult/Politico poll found climate change, gun policy and recent state abortion legislation top Democratic voters’ list of topics they most want to hear during the two days the candidates are on stage. 
Roughly 3 in 5 Democrats said it was “very important” for the candidates to discuss the three topics, according to the June 21-24 survey, while less than half said the same about the current topics driving the discussion about President Donald Trump’s administration, foreign policy issues regarding Iran and North Korea and trade sanctions on China and Mexico.
Democratic men and women have similar preferences for what they want to see candidates discuss, though women were 10 percentage points more likely to prioritize gun policy, 67 percent to 57 percent — the party’s only double-digit gender gap on the 17 topics surveyed. (A total of 707 Democratic voters took the survey, which has a margin of error of 4 percentage points.)
Discussion of slavery reparations has also cropped up in presidential candidates’ conversations, but it ranked at the bottom of the topics listed, with 25 percent saying it was very important to be discussed in the debate, the same share who want to hear the contenders discuss Trump’s proposed U.S.-Mexico border wall.

Precious Heavenly Father, yours truly prays for these Democrats that Lord you would please prick their hearts that their priority would be to seek you. Please Lord let them see that this world’s greatest need is to recognize Jesus your son that they might receive Him and be saved. Let them understand that Christians are not better than them nor do we think we are. Let them see that they are loved by you and those of us who have received you and call on your name. We know that you are allowing things to happen that many will turn to you, repent and be saved. Thank you Lord that you love us all so much that you are relentless in your pursuit of us to cause us to humble ourselves before you so that you might gather us to you. We ask all things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus… Amen.
Amen!!✝️🙏💕💕
Heavenly Father, I agree with Kathy that this is what the Dems need to hear. My prayer is that you would ‘infuse’ them with the understanding that compromising Your principles to win votes will not take them where they want to be — in charge. May both sides see that when we ‘just give’ to others, we rob them of their power to be useful — they are slaves. I recall that I voted for President Trump only because he was not Hillary. Still, I believe President Trump has demonstrated that he gets Your plan and is willing to stand up for it. Thank you Jesus that You died for our sins that we might have eternal life — on Your terms. May that be our message to others. In Jesus name. Amen
