Last Friday, the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute released results of its latest poll<\/a>. The poll covered issues ranging from the U.S. economy to the performance of the Supreme Court on the heels of the recent Obamacare arguments. <\/p>\n

Some of the more interesting results came from questions it posed about the issue of immigration.
