Democrat Iowa caucus voters list three top priorities they want their 2020 presidential candidate to address: Gun control, abortion on demand, and climate change.
A CNN/Des Moines Register/Mediacom poll found the majority of likely Democrat Iowa caucus voters said, “any candidate who hopes to win their support must favor a woman’s right to abortion, recognize climate change as humanity’s greatest threat, and support the restoration of a ban on assault-style weapons.”
Less than half of poll respondents also said they want a candidate who supports Medicare for All, free college tuition, and restoration of felon voting rights.
Abortion is one of the most important issues to Democrats who will vote in person or virtually in the caucus, according to the poll, which showed it is the No. 1 issue with eight in ten respondents.
“Recognition of climate change as the greatest threat to humanity stands narrowly behind, a must-have for about three-quarters. Fewer (about six in ten) say it’s a must-have to support restoring the ban on assault-style weapons,” CNN reported on its poll.
The poll found the biggest gap among the left wing of the party and more moderate Democrats was the Medicare of All proposal — 60 percent of the far left want socialized medicine while on 39 percent of moderates favor it.
Not surprisingly, of the likely caucus voters who are 35 or younger, 61 percent want student debt forgiveness.
And younger Democrat voters also are more enthusiastic about the radical Green New Deal climate change resolution — 42 percent — than older voters, where only 30 percent like the GND.
A majority of Democrats don’t think it matters whether a candidate is male or female, with 54 percent responding that way.
The CNN/Des Moines Register/Mediacom poll was conducted by Selzer & Co. of Des Moines, Iowa, from June 2 to 5 from a random sample of 600 likely Democratic caucus voters reached on landlines or cell phones or who were asked in person.
Of that sample, 433 said they plan to attend the caucuses in person, and 167 said they plan to attend virtually.
Results for the combined sample of likely caucusgoers have a sampling margin of error of plus or minus 4.0 percentage points; “it is 4.7 points for those planning to attend in-person, 7.6 points for those who plan to attend virtually.”

I must say that the Democrats are consistent, in that they are stupid on more than one issue. They want to spend trillions on climate change which isn’t a problem. Of all categories of firearms in the US, assault style weapons are the least used in homicides, yet the Democrats want to ban them. Both of these issues have something in common, hidden agendas. With climate change some of these are the desire to impose new taxes, expand government power especially the UN, and to force society towards pre-industrial times. With assault style weapons, the hidden agenda is to ban most categories of guns. This is to be done by banning whatever id the most political vulnerable is at the time, and then move on to the next category, and then the next, and then the next.
the Stupid Jackass Party dumb enough to think the world will end soon if their dumb enough to beleive all this mindless nonsense they see on CNN or read about in the NYT’s
