A majority of Americans support building a wall along a border with neighboring Mexico amid the southern border crisis that witnessed an influx of illegal immigrants into the country, according to a new poll from Quinnipiac University.

The poll, released on Oct. 17, shows that 52 percent of American voters support the U.S.-Mexico border wall, marking the first time over half of the voters supported the construction of a border wall with Mexico since the question was first raised in Nov. 2016 by the Quinnipiac University Poll. Forty-four percent of voters are against the border wall.
