A poll has shown that New York voters support the state's involvement in President Trump's deportation efforts.

A recent poll shows that the majority of New York voters support President-elect Trump's plans for mass deportation, says a report released on Tuesday.

A poll conducted by Siena College in New York found that 54% of respondents support the Trump administration's efforts to deport undocumented immigrants living in the state, while 35% oppose the plans.

The president-elect's deportation plan received strong support across the state, including in New York City.

"According to Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg, a majority of voters from the City, upstate, and downstate suburbs, as well as white and Black voters, support the State's efforts to back the Feds' efforts to deport illegal immigrants living in the state. Additionally, a plurality of Latino voters, 47-36%, also support this effort."

In the state, 51% of Democrats opposed deportations, while 38% supported any such plans. On the other hand, 87% of Republicans overwhelmingly supported Trump's plans, compared with 8% who opposed. Meanwhile, independent voters broke down with 54% in support and 30% who opposed.

In New York City, 7.7% of the illegal immigrant population had previously been convicted of a crime or had criminal charges pending, according to data obtained by the New York Post from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement last month.

As of 2022, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security estimates that 11 million illegal immigrants were residing in the country.

When Trump assumes office in January with a Republican House and Senate, he intends to initiate a large-scale deportation campaign.

Some Democrats have urged President Biden to maintain existing safeguards for certain undocumented individuals, including DACA beneficiaries.

On Sunday, Trump stated that he intends to collaborate with Democrats on a plan to aid illegal immigrants who entered the U.S. as minors and were shielded from deportation under the DACA order.

"Trump stated that he would collaborate with the Democrats on a plan, but the Democrats have made it challenging to achieve anything. On the other hand, Republicans are open to the Dreamers. Trump mentioned that the Dreamers were brought into the country many years ago, and some of them have become successful adults with great jobs, small businesses, or even large businesses. Therefore, they need to be addressed."
