55% of Colorado Voters Favor Immigration Law Like Arizona's
Saturday, May 08, 2010

Fifty-five percent (55%) of Colorado voters favor a law like the one just adopted in Arizona that authorizes local police to stop individuals they suspect of being illegal immigrants, according to a new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state. Thirty-five percent (35%) oppose such a law.

Nationally, 59% of voters favor a law like Arizona's, unchanged from a week earlier despite last weekend's protest rallies. Fifty percent (50%) have an unfavorable opinion of the protestors.

But also as is found nationally, 55% of voters in Colorado are at least somewhat concerned that this intensified effort to identify and deport illegal immigrants will end up violating the rights of some U.S. citizens. Forty-three percent (43%) do not share this concern. This includes 33% who are Very Concerned and 20% who are Not At All Concerned.

The survey of 500 Likely Voters in Colorado was conducted on May 3, 2010 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/-4.5 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.

Fifty-nine percent (59%) of voters in the state agree with a welcoming immigration policy that only excludes “national security threats, criminals and those who would come here to live off our welfare system.â€

LETS GO COLORADO!

The sooner that that traitor Ritter is out of office the better, he and his progressive cohorts have done lots of damage to Colorado!

Promissing statistics! Hopefully we can defeat that bum Hickenlooper and pass a law similar to Arizona's immigration inforcement law. Ritter has angered me on other issues like raising property taxes and unionizing state workers. I'll be glad to see him out of the Governors seat!
