Most notably, candidates should focus on proposing solutions to rising crime rates and inflation. <\/p>\n<p>Inflation has emerged as a top concern for voters ahead of the midterm elections, with 30% of people identifying it as their biggest concern, <a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2022\/09\/08\/1121535686\/poll-abortion-inflation-midterm-elections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to an NPR-<\/a><i><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2022\/09\/08\/1121535686\/poll-abortion-inflation-midterm-elections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PBS NewsHour-<\/a><\/i><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2022\/09\/08\/1121535686\/poll-abortion-inflation-midterm-elections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marist poll.<\/a> This may give Republicans an advantage in November because voters overwhelmingly consider the party better at handling the economy compared to Democrats, the poll found. <\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Gingrich\u2019s strategy doesn\u2019t mention abortion, which came in as the No. 2 concern among voters, according to the poll. Abortion rights emerged as a key voter issue over the summer shortly after the Supreme Court announced its decision to reverse <i>Roe v. Wade,<\/i> ending nationwide access to abortions and instead returning the decision of its legality to the states. <\/p>\n<p>The reversal of <i>Roe<\/i> has given Democratic candidates somewhat of a boost in their midterm campaigns, and the party seeks to use it to motivate voter turnout. Alternatively, Republicans have found themselves on the defensive after the Supreme Court decision was released, with several candidates reversing or clarifying previous anti-abortion comments to broaden their bases. <\/p>\n<p><b><a class=\"Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/b> <\/p>\n<p>Overall, Republicans should tie themselves to the \u201cCommitment to America\u201d strategy from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Gingrich wrote.
