Climate Change Is on the Ballot Despite Democrats' Silence
Original: Climate Change Is on the Ballot—Even If Dems Aren’t Saying Those Words
Commentators argue that climate change is a defining issue in the upcoming United States elections, even though Democratic candidates are largely avoiding explicit mention of it on the campaign trail. The New Republic contends that voters will still effectively decide the direction of climate policy at the ballot box, regardless of how little the phrase features in campaign messaging, amid a broader Democratic strategy of not leading with the topic.
Why now: Election coverage is examining why Democrats are downplaying climate change and what that means for climate policy after the vote.
