In a recent CBS News/YouGov poll, a significant majority of registered voters expressed support for a national program to deport illegal aliens from the United States. The poll found that 62% of respondents were in favor of such a program, including a majority of Hispanic voters. This news comes as the issue of immigration remains a contentious topic in the lead-up to the 2024 presidential election.

The poll results indicate a growing sentiment among the American public for stricter immigration enforcement measures. Among the 62% of registered voters who support a national deportation program, 53% identified as Hispanic. This finding challenges the widely held belief that Hispanic voters are uniformly opposed to deportation policies.

The poll also revealed that support for deportation is particularly strong among Republicans, with 81% in favor of the program. Independents and Democrats showed more divided opinions, with 60% and 45% support, respectively.

The results of the poll have sparked debate among political analysts and immigration advocates. Supporters of the program argue that it is necessary to protect American jobs and maintain national security. Opponents, however, claim that it would lead to the separation of families and cause undue hardship for undocumented immigrants.

As the 2024 election approaches, the issue of immigration is likely to remain at the forefront of political discourse. The poll results suggest that candidates on both sides of the aisle will need to carefully consider their stance on deportation policies in order to appeal to a diverse electorate.
