A new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll asks several questions about immigration reform, including one about border security. “From what you have seen, read, or heard about the U.S. border with Mexico, would you say the border is totally secure, mostly secure, mostly not secure, totally not secure, or do you not know enough about this to have an opinion at this time?” asked pollsters Peter Hart and Bill McInturff of 1,000 people in early April.
The results were conclusive. A total of 63 percent said the border is mostly not secure or totally not secure. (Thirty-eight percent said mostly not secure and 25 percent said totally not secure.) Just one percent said the border is totally secure, and another 17 percent said the border is mostly secure.
