single issue
Solitary political focus
Single issue describes a focus on one particular topic to the exclusion of others, especially in politics.
A single-issue voter bases their choice entirely on a candidate's stance on one matter—abortion, guns, immigration.
Single-issue groups or campaigns organize around that narrow focus: a single-issue candidate running on tax reform.
The term can be neutral or dismissive, suggesting tunnel vision.
