A new poll commissioned by the “For Our Future” PAC shows that likely voters in New Orleans overwhelmingly oppose the deployment of federal immigration agents in the city.
The survey, conducted by JMC Analytics and Polling, found that 79% of likely voters oppose or strongly oppose the deployment of ICE or Border Patrol to New Orleans. The same group of respondents also reported a negative view of Gov. Jeff Landry, with 77% responding they have a somewhat or very unfavorable opinion of him.
The poll was conducted in late November, before full immigration sweeps began in the New Orleans area. JMC Analytics sampled 500 voters through a mix of text messages and calls to both cell phones and landlines, with responses distributed fairly evenly across all City Council districts.
