Fox News
While the economy still dominates voters' minds, the number of registered voters who feel that border security should be a top priority has spiked.
When it comes to shoring up the perimeter, the most favored tactic is increasing the number of border agents (79% favor).
About two-thirds support deporting those here illegally (67% favor), penalizing businesses that knowingly hire illegal immigrants (64%), and allowing illegal immigrants who have U.S. jobs to stay and apply for legal status (62%). Fewer, although still majorities, favor using the U.S. military at the border (58%) and building a wall (54%).
