Despite warnings from figures like former Vice President Al Gore in 2006, recent polls indicate that climate change ranks far below issues like the economy (54%) and immigration (28%) among voters&#8217; priorities.Data shows that only about 3-4% of voters consider climate change a top issue, and the percentage believing it is a man-made problem remains under 50%. Political divisions influence attitudes, with Republicans generally deeming climate change less important. The article emphasizes that most Americans are more focused on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/democrats-try-to-flee-weird-label-that-got-turned-back-on-them-with-next-dnc-leader-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"Democrats try to flee \u2018weird\u2019 label that got turned back on them with next DNC leader - Washington Examiner\">everyday economic concerns<\/a>,eliciting the famous phrase &#8220;it&#8217;s the economy,stupid.&#8221; While climate change remains a divisive topic, it currently does not significantly influence voting behavior.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>In 2006, former Vice President Al Gore warned you.<\/p>\n<p>He wanted you to care about climate change.

They\u2019d rather shift their attention toward the economy or immigration.<\/p>\n<p>At least, that\u2019s what CNN analyst Harry Enten concluded, but who would really argue? There are more pressing issues at hand.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Enten posted footage to social media platform X of a segment in which he spoke about the top issues voters care about ahead of November. Climate change is far down on the list, coming in at 14.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe bottom line when it comes to voters is, simply put, they don\u2019t care, they don\u2019t care.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Enten then showed viewers the results when asked to list their top issues. The economy came in at 54 percent. Second place was immigration with 28 percent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook where climate change is.

Enten clarified, however, there was a partisan divide, as Republicans ranked it as the least important issue. \u201cWe\u2019re only talking about two in five Americans both now and 10 years ago saying that climate change is a very big problem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On another note, Enten also pulled up the numbers for people who say climate change is manmade.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s still less than half \u2014 in 2016, it was 45 percent, and in 2026, it stands at 48 percent.<\/p>\n<p>All the doom and gloom about the world ending clearly has not resonated with voters.<\/p>\n<p>It really shouldn\u2019t be shocking.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re more concerned with the price of groceries, gas, and rent. As Democratic strategist James Carville said bluntly in 1992, \u201cIt\u2019s the economy, stupid.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, no one would argue about immigration remaining an issue across the political spectrum, but for different reasons.<\/p>\n<p>Conservatives want to see more deportations and a strong border.<\/p>\n<p>The left considers immigration to be an issue because President Donald Trump is apparently Adolf Hitler, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement are the Gestapo.<\/p>\n<p>They both care. They just care differently.<\/p>\n<p>Climate change will have to wait its turn, or maybe not. If you ask climate alarmist fanatics, that turn is here, and we are all on a course for destruction.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f7f7f7; color: #171717; display: flex;font-size: 16px;font-weight: 600;line-height: 1.5;margin: 24px 0;padding: 18px 20px 18px 30px;text-align: left;\">\n<div style=\"align-self: stretch;border-left: 3px solid #171717;flex-shrink: 0;padding-left: 20px;\"><\/div>\n<p><a style=\"text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/\">Choose The Western Journal as your preferred source on Google and never miss reporting that defends truth, protects freedom, and advances Western civilization<\/a><\/div>\n<p style=\"border: 1px solid #f5f5f5; padding: 16px;\">Advertise with The Western Journal and reach millions of highly engaged readers, while supporting our work. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/advertise-us\/?wj_source=article\">Advertise Today<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position: relative;\">\n<div class=\"ff-fancy-header-container\"> \t\t\t \t<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-submit-correction inner-content\">\n<div class=\"correction-form\">\n<form style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"sc-name-field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* Name<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc--field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* <\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<label>* Message<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t<textarea name=\"message\" required><\/textarea> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"required-message\" style=\"display: none; padding-bottom: 15px;\">* All fields are required.<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault(); firefly_sc();\"> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"firefly-sc-confirm\" style=\"display: none;\">Success!<\/div>\n<\/p><\/form>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> \t\t<script> \t\t\tfunction firefly_sc() { \t\t\t\tif( typeof window.captchaPublicKey == typeof undefined ){ \t\t\t\t\tconsole.error('window.captchaPublicKey is not defined'); \t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\tgrecaptcha.execute( window.captchaPublicKey, { action: 'submit_correction' } ).then( function( token ) { \t\t\t\t\tvar opts = { \t\t\t\t\t\taction:    'firefly_sc_submit', \t\t\t\t\t\tname:      document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"name\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\t:     document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tmessage:   document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"message\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tpost_id:   firefly_post_id, \t\t\t\t\t\tcap_token: token \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\tvar inputs = [ 'name', '', 'message' ];  \t\t\t\t\tfor( var i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++ ) if( !
