Early exit poll results: Ohioans most concerned about economy
Polls haven’t closed yet in Ohio, but early results from the National Election Pool exit polls conducted by Edison/Mitofsky find that Ohioans are more concerned about the economy than they are about Iraq, energy, terrorism or health care.
Sixty percent of voters identified the economy as their top concern, according to the exit poll. Voters who considered it their top issue were more likely to support Sen. Barack Obama than Sen. John McCain.
Eleven percent of those polled identified Iraq as their top issue. They, too, were more likely to support Obama than McCain. But of the eight percent that identified terrorism as their top concern, more were likely to be McCain voters than Obama voters.
Obama also holds an edge among voters who consider health care their top issue. But McCain has slightly more support than Obama for Ohio voters who consider energy their top issue, according to the poll.
