This poll is a bit deceptive. It only allows a person to vote for enforcement of borders and laws in the same response as a Yes, on Comprehensive Immigration Reform.

The line about securing the border is why that one response is in the lead.

One option in this poll should have been "No, enforce our existing border and immigration laws instead"
