This is Politico, here's some of the text:
“Looking just at Republicans in Cantor’s district, the poll found that 70 percent of GOP registered voters would support such a (generically described immigration) plan, while 27 percent would oppose.
Meanwhile, Cantor was deeply unpopular in his district, the PPP poll found. About 63 percent of those surveyed in his district said they did not approve of the job Cantor has been doing, with 30 percent of registered voters approving. Among Republicans, 43 percent approved of Cantor’s job performance, while 49 percent disapproved, the survey found.
“Cantor didn’t lose because of immigration,” pollster Tom Jensen wrote in the memo obtained in advance by POLITICO. “He lost because of the deep unpopularity of both himself personally and of the Republican House leadership. Even in his conservative district voters still want immigration reform passed, and they want it this year.”
Thanks!
So, I can certainly buy that personal dislike and anger at the GOP leadership played an important role in Cantor’s ouster. With Immigration playing an important role as well and both acting in concert to give Brat the nomination.
