Poll: Two-Thirds of Americans Support Deportations for Illegal MigrantsNeil Munro 9 Oct 2024
An Ipsos poll says 66 percent of Americans support the deportation of illegal migrants, which is a central promise of President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign.
The September 20-22 poll of 1,29 adults shows that 90 percent of Republicans and 68 percent of independents support the popular policy of “deporting immigrants who are in the country illegally.” The policy is also favored by 47 percent of Democrats.
That deportation policy is “strongly ” supported by 39 percent of Americans, including 71 percent of Republicans, and 39 percent of independents — but just 13 percent of Democrats. The “strongly” numbers are important because they show politicians how many Americans are likely to decide their vote on that issue.
The poll also showed that 65 percent of Americans view illegals as a major or minor threat.
The Ipsos poll matches recent polls by Marist, YouGov, and Harvard-Harris. Those polls show clear majority support for enforcing the nation’s existing border laws that protect American strivers and families from poor migrants and employers who cheat by hiring cheap foreign labor.
The polling numbers rose sharply in 2024 partly because of President Donald Trump’s loud and clear denunciation of the White House’s deliberate importation of roughly 10 million migrants since 2021.
