The number of Independents and Republicans who agree that “globalism failed” outnumber those who disagreed.

A majority of respondents who were “neutral” or “opposed” to tariffs would be more likely to support tariffs if the White House were more clear and consistent. 

After a short 5 to 7 minute poll, respondents went from being slightly opposed to tariffs to almost equally supportive of and opposed to tariffs. 

81.7% of Republican respondents support tariffs.

For decades, the American labor market has suffered from a one-two punch of cheap labor being imported and jobs being exported. Because the labor market is not immune from the iron law of supply and demand, this naturally led to lower wages, longer hours, and worse conditions for American workers.

On April 2, 2025, the White House announced an aggressive policy of reciprocal tariffs to address America’s trade imbalance, thereby sparking a debate on the advantages and disadvantages of tariffs.

90.1% of respondents agree or strongly agree that “If we are experiencing a shortage of skilled workers, it would be better in the long-term to reform education and training for Americans.”

68.9% of respondents agree or strongly agree that “Its commonly said that immigrants do the jobs Americans won’t do. But the reality is that employers just want to pay their employees less.”

34.7% of white Republicans are in some from of agreement with the statement that “Many people who support immigration are motivated by racism against whites” compared to 27.6% only four months ago.

Around Christmas Eve in 2024, a firestorm erupted on X (formerly known as Twitter) regarding H-1B work visas. Elon Musk, who was in favor of H-1Bs, found himself opposed by almost every major conservative influencer in addition to vast numbers of rank-and-file X users.

This was a stark departure from the usual tepid chamber of commerce conservatism towards national populism. And what was more surprising was the number of details that surfaced about the H-1B program. For example, the actual number of visas granted in 2024 was over ten times the annual Congressional cap.

In September of 2023, the Homeland Institute conducted a poll on the Great Replacement. In addition to repeating that poll to track how public opinion is evolving, we also explored the popularity of several immigration policies which could help reverse replacement migration.

The Homeland Institute polled 905 respondents who are politically and demographically representative of white, non-Hispanic American registered voters between November 20 and November 25, 2024. The margin of error was plus or minus 3%.

60.2% of Republicans self-identify as single-issue immigration voters in favor of less immigration—more than the 55.9% of Democrats who are single-issue pro-choice voters and the 48.1% of Republicans who are single-issue gun rights voters.

The 32.9% of Independents who identify as single-issue immigration voters in favor of less immigration decisively outnumber the 7.2% of Independents who are single-issue immigration voters in favor of more immigration.

On a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being very important, a quarter of Republicans at 25.2% rated immigration as very important.

Almost two thirds of white voters would support a law making it illegal for an employer to fire an employee for exercising a Constitutionally protected right while off duty.

Almost half of white voters are less likely to support a business if it fires an employee due to pressure from the Left.

Our first Homeland Institute poll ever was conducted last year in August, 2023, on the topic of cancel culture. Cancel culture merits research because it is used with great effect by the Left to chill resistance to globalism, multiculturalism, and mass immigration. More specifically we explored which was more damaging: the charge of “racism” or a charge of “woke.”

Much has happened since last year, so we decided to repeat the poll to track public opinion. For example, there has been a strong conservative backlash to the “woke” opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics, and the X/Twitter account “Libs of Tiktok” has doxed Leftists who publicly wished that Donald Trump had not survived the assassination attempt on him.

Along with repeating last year’s poll on cancel culture, we also expanded it with new questions. The Homeland Institute polled 950 respondents who are politically and demographically representative of white, non-Hispanic American registered voters between July 25 and July 31, 2024. The margin of error was plus or minus 3%.

A short poll increased opposition to granting green cards to college graduates by about 10% across party lines.

The fact that US taxpayers directly and indirectly fund foreign students lowered 47.4% of all respondents’ and 51.1% of Republicans’ opinion of granting green cards to college graduates.

The fact that green card recipients could pose a national security risk in a multipolar world lowered 44.4% of respondents’ opinion of granting green cards to college graduates.

The fact that granting more green cards would change America’s racial demographics lowered 23.7% of all respondents’, 36.7% of Republicans’, 20.5% of Independents’, and even 10.6% of Democrats’ opinion of granting green cards to college graduates.  

Trump’s proposal failed to change how respondents plan to vote.

On June 20, 2024, Donald Trump appeared on the All-In podcast. After being prompted, Trump promised to grant green cards to college graduates starting on day one if he is re-elected. Specifically,

“You graduate from a college, I think you should get automatically, as part of your diploma, a green card to be able to stay in this country. And that includes junior colleges too. Anybody graduates from a college — you go in there for two years or four years. If you graduate, or you get a doctorate degree from a college, you should be able to stay in this country.”[1]

Trump’s green card proposal is a symptom of how there is a stark divide in the public mind between legal and illegal immigration, as was revealed in our previous poll on immigration and repatriation. Widespread opposition to illegal immigration does not translate over into opposition to legal immigration. And, as explained by Executive Director David Zsutty, this must change because legal immigration is actually more deleterious than illegal immigration.

55.1% of all respondents and 85.6% of Republicans support deporting all or almost all illegal immigrants.

48.7% of Republicans, 28.9% of Independents, and even 7.4% of Democrats would oppose immigration if it is changing the racial demographics of the US.

42.9% of all respondents and 67.7% of Republicans support prohibiting illegal immigrants from using non-emergency services as California’s Prop 187 attempted to before it was overturned.

About 28% of all respondents would support a national divorce for states who disagree with the federal government on immigration, regardless of who is president.

In December, 2023, Donald Trump stated of illegal immigrants that “They’re poisoning the blood of our country. They’re coming into our country from Africa, from Asia, all over the world.”

Trump has also recently promised mass deportations if he is re-elected. And in May, 2024, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found that 56% of US voters were in favor of deporting all illegal immigrants, while 36% supported holding illegal immigrants in deportation camps pending deportation.[1]

Meanwhile in Germany, a remix of a techno song of with the lyrics “Ausländer raus” or “foreigners out” has gone viral despite state disapproval.

These developments inspired us to explore the topics of immigration and repatriation, and in greater depth than the Reuters/Ipsos poll. The Homeland Institute polled 1136 respondents who are characteristic of registered white American voters. This poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 3% and was conducted from May 29 through June 11, 2024.

On January 16, 2024, Charlie Kirk challenged the Martin Luther King narrative, and by extension, the entire Civil Rights era paradigm.[1] This took courage because MLK is venerated as the patron saint of multiculturalism. Questioning MLK’s legacy naturally leads to questioning other controversial subjects, such as the legacy of the Civil Rights era as a whole and the current state of race relations in modern America.

On February 20, 2023, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene posted on Twitter that we need a national divorce in which we separate red states and blue states and shrink the federal government.[1] This sparked an ongoing discussion about national divorce.

Shortly thereafter, The Economist/YouGov conducted a poll March 4-7, 2023 in which they asked about national divorce.[2] Axios/Ipsos conducted a poll which asked about national divorce March 10-13, 2023.[3]

The attitudes between white men and women towards preserving America’s demographics are not grossly disparate.  

Nihilism and apathy rather than anti-white indoctrination may be the greatest barrier to mobilizing the youth.  

By David Zsutty

The Homeland Institute’s second poll on the Great Replacement garnered a lot of attention.^[1] In fact, it received over forty-four thousand views on Telegram alone.

The answers we found prompted further questions. For example, several people expressed an interest in how the answers broke down by sex and age, especially regarding the question of support or opposition to preserving America’s white majority. We decided to do a follow up report to address the two most common questions we received: How did support for preserving the white majority break down for sex and age?

72.4% of white Republicans, 40.6% of white Independents, and even 16.8% of white Democrats feel that changing demographics pose at least some threat to white Americans and their culture and values.

Last year on June 1, 2022, the Southern Poverty Law Center released the findings of a poll they conducted on the Great Replacement and other topics from April 18–25, 2022.[1] Around the same time on May 24, 2022, Yahoo News/YouGov released their findings from a poll conducted from May 19–22 about the Great Replacement and other topics as well.[2]

The Homeland Institute conducted a follow-up poll of our own from August 29, 2023 through September 11, 2023 which asked 797 respondents who are politically and demographically representative of white, non-Hispanic American voters to see if we could replicate some of the SPLC and YouGov findings. (Our margin of error is 3%.)

7.2% of white Republican respondents said that an accusation of racism would make them more likely to vote for a political candidate.

By David Zsutty

Politicians and businesses cower in fear of being accused of racism. As we saw during the George Floyd riots, a racism charge is perceived to be so serious that many businesses displayed BLM signs, like the blood of the Passover lamb, in the hope it would spare them from riot damage. Yet the recent boycott of Bud Light for “going woke” through their partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney cost their parent company Anheuser-Busch $27 billion.[1]
