In the survey of South Carolina Republican primary voters conducted by Edison Research, 37% of voters claimed that immigration was the most important issue, followed by 33% who listed the economy as the most pressing concern.
Comparable results were uncovered in exit polls conducted in GOP presidential nomination contests in New Hampshire and Iowa. In both of those states, approximately 40% of respondents listed immigration as the top concern, followed by the economy and jobs.
