(146,317 posts)7. Probably not. Although the issue is important to you,
apparently, it's not a presidential campaign issue of any importance. Pretty much nobody will vote based on such a minor thing. Autonomous vehicles will succeed or fail based on how well they perform and their safety record. There's no real reason for a presidential candidate to take a position on them at all.
It's simply not a political issue of any significance.
