    TEXAS Poll: 52% back visa or path to legal status???????

    Poll: 52% back visa or path to legal status
    But 38% of Texans favor deportation in survey on illegal immigration

    AUSTIN — More Texas voters think unauthorized immigrants should be allowed to stay in the United States — through either a path to citizenship or work visas — than favor deporting them, according to a new Houston Chronicle/San Antonio Express-News poll.

    The poll showed that 38 percent of respondents favoring deportation — drawing the most support of the three options offered. Twenty-nine percent favored a way for unauthorized immigrants to attain citizenship, while 23 percent supported work visas.

    Pollster Mickey Blum attributed some of the outcome to the structure of the question: “Two of them involved staying; one seemed a little bit like a middle road. ... Some people could have grabbed that so they didn't have to say either deport them or give them a path to citizenship.â€

    Exactly: the Houston Chronicle/San Antonio Express-News. You can't get any more biased than that.

    Downright Lies!! Both of those news organizations are lefty ethnocentrics.
    We Texans want them all out, despite their crooked poll with quirky wording and skewed accounting.
