      Gaza continues to be extremely unimportant to most voters in this country. There’s a huge perception gap for the few people for whom it is a primary issue – they regularly think significantly more people care about it than actually do. It routinely ranks last or second to last among 12 issues in Harvard IOP polling even with the age group that cares the most about it (democratic leaning, college-educated 18-29 year-olds).

      The Gaza issue isn’t moving the needle for Harris much one way or the other. If you can’t even get the people to care about the issue, don’t expect it from politicians.

        You say that but the election is close. Anything that moves the needle matters, especially for on the fence/swing voters
