Here are the main takeaways on voter attitudes toward the economy and the banking system from the latest Fox News national survey.– An overwhelming majority remains worried about inflation – there is no bigger concern.Fully 90% of voters are worried about inflation, putting it above other top concerns like higher crime rates across the country (87%) and political divisions (83%). And 61% are "extremely" concerned about inflation, which is at least 15 points higher than any other issue. – More than 7 in 10 say inflation has caused their family hardship, and many couldn’t make ends meet if they missed more than two paychecks. About three-quarters say inflation has caused them hardship over the last six months, including 32% who describe it as a serious hardship. Those sentiments have held steady over the last few months.Over half, 54%, couldn’t miss more than two paychecks before falling behind on their bills. That’s identical to the 54% who said the same under the Trump administration in 2019. In fact, four years ago, 20% couldn’t afford to miss even one paycheck, and that’s improved a touch to 17% now.Some 68% of those living in households earning less than $50,000 annually could only miss two paychecks before having trouble paying bills.
