I think there is definitely a subset of voter who feel this way. I don't know if they outnumber those who are interested in growth. The retired population, for instance, wants to see growth more as do those who feel secure in their jobs. The reason is that growth is likely to increase the value of their retirement funds/assets.
I am sure there is a subset of voters who do not feel secure in their jobs. I just don't know how large the group is in relation to those more concerned with growth.
