Toomey: Health Care’s the Dominant Issue Among Voters, Not Russia

‘Health care has been the dominant issue’

EXCERPT:

IGNATIUS: “Senator, your state, Pennsylvania, was one of the crucial states in getting Donald Trump elected through the Electoral College. I’m curious what you’re hearing from your constituents. We talk on this show, we talk in Washington about these issues. But it’s always a bit of puzzle how much this conversation is penetrating the voters out in the country. What are you hearing from voters when you talk to them about Russian meddling in the election, about Trump’s contacts, those of his associates with the Russians? Are people getting worried about this?”
TOOMEY: “Somewhat. But I’ll tell you, I did a town hall meeting last week and the issue that came up, time after time, was health care. That’s the front burner issue. I think there’s some concern in the background about other things, including Russia, certainly. But health care has been the dominant issue.”
