Cost of living is top of mind for midterm voters
About this episode
The episode discusses the economic concerns of voters ahead of the midterm elections, highlighting a recent poll on cost of living perceptions.
Less than eight weeks until midterm elections, the economy remains the center of voters' attention. Ipsos and Reuters just released a poll that found 74% of voters think their own cost of living is heading down the wrong track. What’s more, 59% of Americans don’t think their family has a good chance of improving their standard of living. Also on the show: a preview of Friday's consumer price index and the economic impact of Germany's border checks. Every story has an economic angle. Want some in your inbox?
