PANews reported on May 14th, citing Cointelegraph, that a poll released Wednesday by Politico and conducted by Public First among 2,035 U.S. adults showed that only 4% of respondents would decide their voting intentions based on a candidate's stance on crypto policies. Affordable housing, consumer fraud protection, and lowering bank fees were the top three issues voters most wanted Congress to address. Only 18% of respondents considered setting rules for the crypto market a congressional priority, just one percentage point higher than regulating large banks. 45% of respondents believed that investing in crypto was not worth the risk, even with high returns; only 19% had ever traded cryptocurrencies. Republican Representative Dusty Johnson stated that most voters don't care about digital assets, but those who do care are very concerned.

A HarrisX poll last week showed that 47% of voters were willing to cross party lines to support a candidate who supports the crypto bill.
