In New Hampshire the story is the same, with 4 in 10 Republican primary voters saying immigration is their top issue.

On a personal level, what do Republicans think about their own financial situation? As we saw in the Iowa caucus last week, New Hampshire Republican primary voters say they’re in bad shape financially.

Immigration is a top issue for Republicans across the country – and that continues to be true in New Hampshire. So, do New Hampshire Republicans say immigrants do more to help or hurt the country? Well, close to 7 in 10 say they do more to hurt.
