New Jersey Poll Shows Mixed Feelings on Immigration
New Jersey Poll Shows Mixed Feelings on Immigration
WNYC Newsroom
NEW YORK, NY July 29, 2007 —About two-thirds of New Jersey residents in a new survey say they'd offer a "path to citizenship" to illegal immigrants who've lived and worked in the United States for at least two years.
Nearly all the rest surveyed, 30 percent, said illegal aliens should be deported, according to a Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey released today. About 75 percent of those surveyed said illegal immigration is a serious problem for New Jersey. But respondents were more evenly divided on the overall impact of immigration, with 40 percent calling it good, and 44 percent saying it's bad.
In keeping with regional differences seen on other questions, residents in southern and central New Jersey had less favorable views of immigration: half felt it was bad for the state.
The telephone poll of 800 New Jersey adults has a sampling error margin of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
