The “Post Poll” is a reader participation feature of The Catholic Post. Responses are posted here as they arrive and also may appear in the weekly diocesan newspaper. To take part, send an email to cathpost@cdop.org, or use the “Email Us” link at the left of this page. Put “Post Poll” in the subject line, and include your name and parish.

This week’s question: With the Democratic and Republican presidential candidates now official, what are three issues (in order) you will consider highest priority as you decide your vote in the November election? You may include a brief explanation of why these matter most to you as a Catholic citizen.

This is an issues-only poll. Responses should not mention specific candidates or parties. Any such references will be edited.

Thank you for sharing your opinion. Please also feel free to suggest future poll topics. A new topic will be announced Sept. 19.
