The most important issues for Saskatchewan voters depends on which party they support, according to a new poll.
CTV News in partnership with Insightrix Research, asked Saskatchewan voters to rank their key issues ahead of the election call.
The most common issues voters across all political stripes ranked in their top three were are healthcare, inflation or rising costs, and taxes.
Healthcare was ranked as the most important issue by 25 per cent of those polled, and in the top three for as many as three in four NDP voters. For undecided voters, the issue is top three for 66 per cent.
“With it being such a tight race, those people who are not sure who they're going to vote for yet, well, what matters most to them, and health care is number one for those people,” Insightrix Research Director Lang McGilp said.
Undecided voters are significantly more interested in inflation and rising costs as the top economic issue compared to taxation, with a 19 per cent difference between the two, although taxes are still a top issue for 38 per cent of undecided voters.
