"Something remarkable happened in the 2026 midterm elections. Democrats won big, Republicans took a beating, and yet one of the Democratic Party's signature issues of the past decade was almost nowhere to be found: climate change.

That is not my interpretation. Axios put it rather plainly: “Democrats have made climate change a centerpiece of their campaigns for years, but this year they barely mentioned it.” Axios went on to say the midterms demonstrated “just how far the topic has fallen down the political priority list.”

That may be one of the most important political stories to come out of the November election.

Look at the NBC News exit polling. The economy was the most important issue for 39 percent of voters. The state of democracy came next at 32 percent. Immigration followed at 14 percent. Health care, foreign policy, and crime rounded out the list.

Climate change wasn't among the leading issues.

When voters were asked what affected their votes, the picture became even clearer. Government corruption was considered a crucial or major factor by 90 percent of voters. Cost of living was cited by 89 percent, immigration enforcement by 73 percent, and even artificial intelligence and data centers by 56 percent.

Again, climate change was conspicuous by its absence." . . . More.
