Only 5.3 percent of Republicans say jobs should go to the cheapest workers, either Americans or foreign. This compares to 12.8 percent of Democrats and 16.2 percent of independents who say the same.

Nobody in their right mind wants the US to be overrun with illegal aliens, jobs are hard enough to find for those of us who live here legally.

Judge Hanen’s overturning of Amnesty is HUGE. Battlefront #2 will be stopping Barry’s immigration of thousands of Syrian ‘refugees’, some of whom are surely ISIS in disguise.

To quote one of Robert A. Heinlein’s characters, this poll “had same significance as squeals of kittens in a box.”

when asked about immigration’s impact on American jobs...

Well, that's the problem right there. It's a flawed poll. You're not supposed to connect immigration to the tight job market. You're supposed to connect immigration to inspirational stories about "dreamers".

I’m equally sure that a national poll would conclude with the same results.

It’s not just Obama’s amnesty and it’s not just Georgia.
In deep blue oregon voters shot down drivers licenses for illegal aliens by 65%.
American citizens are sick of their country being overrun and want it stopped.
Both parties want amnesty against the wishes of 65-70% of the citizens.
Eric Cantor was the first to pay the price.
There will be more.

I would bet that the large Hispanic population in the Atlanta area has something to do with it.

A possibly relevant anecdote from a Georgia resident:

At times I’d drive by a large mobile home “park”. At the front of this residential area is a tiny parking area, usually with a number of able-bodied men awaiting someone to drive up and solicit their labors. There was a small building there, serving residents, basically a small convenience store. That burned down. Then someone brought in a trailer to act as the store in the building’s absence. That burned down. Now nothing takes the store’s place, though able-bodied men continue to loiter there, waiting for work.
