Deep dives

Immigration as Top Concern of American Voters

According to a recent poll, immigration has overtaken inflation as the top concern of American voters. This shift is significant, considering that immigration was also a key issue in the 2024 election that propelled Donald Trump into the presidency. The poll found that 35% of voters named immigration as their top concern, followed closely by 32% who cited inflation. The Biden administration's handling of the immigration situation, including the open border policies and the apparent disregard for voter sentiment, is a point of contention among Republicans, independents, and even a plurality of Democrats.
