Curiosity question on your top 2-3 voting "issues"......

all you typically see/hear/read whether it be on this board or on the news from CNN to Fox News is "i'm voting Biden b/c Trump sux" OR "i'm voting for Trump b/c Biden sux".
I'm of the mindset that MOST people vote on real "issues"/topics that they feel a candidate will "do better at" than the other in regards to the best interest of themselves/their family. So I'm not here to argue w/ somebody who thinks that their best interest is better served by one candidate over the other, but I am curious as the top 1-3 issues or topics that they vote on. It can be, but not limited to any of the following:
-Social issues (pick a few of the many)
-Supreme Court
-COVID
-Foreign policy
-Domestic policy
-Economy
-Trump's a liar / Biden's a liar (i'd prefer to steer clear of either of these, but i'm sure some will go that direction)
-etc, etc, etc....
Again, I'm not asking WHO you're voting for, but rather the top few platforms that you're voting on the YOU think will be of the best interest for you & your family/friends.
Try to keep it civil. This is strictly a curiosity question and I'm not going to question at all what YOU feel is in your best interest.

1. taxes/fiscal policy (keep my taxes low and spending even lower)
...
2. judicial pics (textualists only need apply)
3. foreign policy (no wars; no foreign intervention)
my vote largely turns on 1.
CA's law of voting: Never ever vote for someone who will raise taxes. I'm an absolutist on this.

On issue one, what's your preference between (a) tax & spend vs. (b) borrow and spend? In other words, until spending is cut, do you prefer to increase the national debt or increase tax revenue?

1. Anti-PC, anti-victimhood approach by Trump
2. Lower taxes --> economic growth and prosperity for *all*
3. Defense budget
I'd like to add lower spending to the list, but both parties fail on spending and not sure that will change anytime soon. I think only Term Limits might solve that one.
What turns me off with the Democrats is:
1. Promoting victimhood and associated perpetrators to cause division to keep themselves in office
2. social spending keeps people in poverty
3. green new deal is infinitely not achievable

pheebo,
I am voting for Biden to get
1. a return to the rule of law
2. a valuing of empirical evidence and rational thinking over emotionalism and fear-mongering
3. a more equitable distribution of wealth and justice

A distribution of wealth is laughable and naive thinking... the solution is increase the taxes who have an income of more than $400,000 dollars a year. Why is 400k the magic number? Why not 100 or even 70k? Not to place blame or shame on anyone making a living, but honestly sit back and estimate how many in your community bring $400k income in? I’d bet my income ($ not 400k) that we will still see veterans and elderly barely making ends meet. I’d rather see a politician that’s not a sheep and doesn’t follow conventional politic guidelines which has been proven time and time again that it DOES NOT WORK!
We do not need any more gutless presidents who spent 8 years paying everybody to pretend to be our “allies”.

You didn't specify office...

The answers are very different because the responsibilities are very different.
For a President:
1. Humility/Kindness/Character
2. Military strategy
3. SCOTUS nominations
For Congress:
1. Humility/Kindness/Character
2. Fiscal responsibility (Taxes & Spending)
3. Immigration policy
I don't view it as "what's best for me and my family". I view it as "what's right," even if what's right may be a negative for me and my family.
