Exit poll: American voters at odds with Trump over signature immigration proposals

None

A majority of American voters are at odds with Republican Donald Trump on two of his signature immigration proposals, according to the preliminary results of exit polling conducted by Edison Research for The Associated Press and television networks.

 

The poll found that just four out of 10 voters say they support building a wall on the US-Mexico border. A majority oppose the idea.

 

About seven out of 10 people who have voted already say they'd rather allow workers in the US illegally have a way to apply for legal status than have them deported. About a quarter of voters support deportation.

 

Trump fueled his rise to the Republican nomination with his promise to build a border wall and deport millions of residents in the US illegally.
