Republicans need to make gains with Hispanic voters in 2016, but that reality is complicated by the fact that more adults support Donald Trump’s hard-line stance on immigration, a new Economist Group/YouGov Poll finds.

A whopping 49 percent of Republicans and independents who lean to the GOP say Trump is the presidential candidate who can best handle the issue — well ahead of Marco Rubio with 10 percent GOP support, Ted Cruz with 7 percent and Jeb Bush at 5 percent.

YouGov-GOPImmigration-1

The divide in the GOP over how to address issues stemming from illegal immigration spilled over in the fourth Republican presidential debate Tuesday. The opt-in, Internet survey was taken Nov. 5-9, before the economy-focused debate in Milwaukee.

Is it really true that if we don’t support amnesty, we can’t get the Hispanic vote?

Outstanding. Poll is the real deal with an acceptable +/- 3.1 MoE.

The array was GOPCandidates+Don’tKnow. It’s going to skew much differently than a gen pop survey because it’s captive to the GOPCandidates+Don’tKnow spread.

Come election day Nov 2016, I will not even bother to open the Ballot to vote, if Bush or Rubio are the candidate.

And if you poll Dem and Independent voters, I bet a substantial portion of them would support Trump.

According to Krauthhammer on Bret Baier Special Report tonight, all internet polls are wrong, just plain wrong. (I’m paraphrasing a bit here.)

And, according to Krauthammer, that is why Trump always is first place in the internet polls - they can’t possibly be right; Trump’s people are right on those polls like flies.
He said, just ask Ron Paul — he was always ahead in all of the internet polls, and we see what happened to him.

Used to have respect for Krauthammer, but I am seeing the true colors of people lately that I used to really enjoy listening to; such as Krauthammer, George Will, Brit Hume and his girlfriend MeGyn, Rich Lowry, Steve Hayes. Even Bret Baier. Can’t stand to listen to any of them anymore.

Been watching Newsmax a lot lately.

It’s federal law to deport those coming into this country illegally.

It’s kinda sad to see Not Sure running second in our Idiocracy. He did such a fine job straightening out the Brawndo mess it seems like voters would have kept him in the White House longer.

You got it. You cannot have a country without secured borders. Lawless violent borders and millions entering illegally affect everything and are clearly a huge contributor to America's decline.

Such as taxes, schools, education, jails, crime, jobs, economy, national security, healthcare and our very electoral process...Everything.
