The poll sampled 1,000 registered voters, with 620 interviewed via cell phone and 309 interviewed through an online survey sent via text message.
The polling was conducted from Feb. 27 to March 3, 2026, with a +/- 3.10 percent margin of error.

ICE had a “total positive” rating of 38 percent, beating out the Democrats by eight points.
The poll also showed that President Donald Trump remains more popular than former Vice President Kamala Harris and California Gov. Gavin Newsom, both of whom are Democrats.
The numbers showed Trump holding steady at 41 percent, while Harris and Newsom were at 34 percent and 27 percent, respectively. Newsom has been touted as a top-tier candidate for the Democrats in the 2028 presidential election.
