Ohio voters support Arizona immigration law - see the poll

By Josh Sweigart | Tuesday, June 29, 2010, 11:00 AM

Press release from Quinnipiac University:

Ohio voters approve 48 - 28 percent of Arizona’s immigration law. They say 72 - 22 percent that immigration reform should move in the direction of stricter enforcement rather than integrating illegal immigrants into American society. The new law will not lead to discrimination against Hispanics, voters say 43 - 40 percent. And by an overwhelming 79 - 10 percent they think an economic boycott of Arizona is a bad idea.

“Ohio voters like the Arizona approach to illegal immigration so much they would like to see a similar law passed by the State Legislature,” said Brown.

From June 22 - 27, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,107 registered Ohio voters, with a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points.

Here are the full survey results. They are couched in a larger survey about the race for Ohio governor. See the results to questions about immigration at the bottom of the page.
