As anti-Israel protests heat up across Columbia University and other elite college campuses, a new Harvard poll reveals only 2% of people ages 18-29 consider the Israel-Hamas conflict as the most concerning issue.

When comparing the Israel-Hamas conflict to other issues, 61% of the time respondents said it was a less important issue. 

The most important issue for young voters was the economy, followed by illegal immigration and inflation. Inflation ranks high among young adults, with 64% of respondents saying it was the most important issue. Meanwhile, student debt was considered an important issue 26% of the time, and abortion rights were the most important issue half of the time.
