JUst one of many over the years that have come to the same conclusion.

We had a vote on it too. The wall candidate lost.

It's a bogus poll commissioned by a group that wants open borders.
Other polls are similar. 784 people in this one.

If you disagree with their findings, let's see a poll that shows different feelings in Arizona.

You're pretty out of touch then. I suppose it depends on what "fellow Arizonans" you spend your time with. Arizona consistently wants border control, but not does see a wall as the best means to achieve that.

t's not as easy as it was a few years ago. The booming construction economy has grabbed up many and the border is not as porous as back under Bush when they were coming in by the busload. Many of the people hanging out there are citizens, too.

There are plenty of ranchers along the border that don't support a wall, is the government going to use eminent domain to erect the wall on those properties. How about the Rio Grande and Big Bend National Park in Texas and all those other ranchers in NM, do they agree to giving up their property. This is a lot for a resident to give up for a policy that will have minimal impact.

Like McCain before him, Flake is an open border RINO, so I'm not surprised by this move.

Being against an ineffective wall solution is not the same as open borders.

For example, when we installed a border wall in the Yuma Sector, we have seen border apprehensions decrease by 90 percent.
