(Austin, TX—June 29, 2021) Convention of States Action, in partnership with The Trafalgar Group—one of America’s most accurate pollsters in 2016, 2018 and 2020—is releasing the results of a new national survey. Results were from surveys conducted June 23rd thru June 26th of over 1,000 likely 2022 election voters.
“If Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are wondering whether they’ve fooled the American people as to the actual reasons behind their disastrous border policy, they haven’t. Across all parties, it’s clear to voters that the Administration’s open borders approach is driven either by naked political motivations or gross naivety, and not by the best interest of the nation,” said Mark Meckler, President of Convention of States Action. “It’s time for border state governments to get even more aggressive in protecting their citizens, because the only people the federal government seems to want to protect are violent extremists behind border walls in places like Portland and Seattle.”
