Breitbart/Judicial Watch Poll: A Warning Against Compromise

Breitbart/Judicial Watch Poll: A Warning Against Compromise: The Breitbart News Network/Judicial Watch post-election survey released today is a warning to those who have argued, in the wake of the 2012 election, that the way for the Republican Party to broaden its appeal is to compromise on core principles of limited government and the rule of law.

For example, many pundits--including some conservatives--have argued that Republicans should embrace "amnesty" on immigration as a way of reversing the party's decline among the growing Latino voting population. Yet the pundits are making their proclamations without any data to support them.

The Breitbart News/Judicial Watch survey, conducted by Public Opinion Strategies, revealed that:

71% of voters agree that big government leads to corruption, and 85% of voters are concerned about corruption, but voters do not trust either party to clean up Washington
77% of voters believe the media was biased in favor of one candidate
61% of voters embrace Arizona-style immigration laws, including 40% of Hispanics
76% of voters--and a majority within EVERY minority group--favor photo ID for voting
