Episode notes
Poll Shows Broad Voter Support For Mass Deportations
- Rosemary Jenks' poll of likely voters found 66% support mass deportations and 78% support mandatory E-Verify.
- The poll sampled likely voters and pulled subgroups (Trump voters, Hispanics) to show broad enforcement support across parties and demographics.

- Do use immigration enforcement as a turnout issue for Republican midterm voters because it energizes the MAGA base.
- Rosemary Jenks argues following through on Trump's deportation promises will drive turnout and satisfy base expectations.
