Only 13 percent of Americans are aware of the severity of the illegal immigration crisis at the US border with Mexico, a new poll has revealed.
The latest Harvard/Harris survey found that less than two-in-15 voters in the United States realize the soaring levels of illegal immigration across the US Southern Border.
When US citizens are asked how many illegal aliens are crossing the border, the poll reveals that only about 13 percent answered correctly.
Around 76 percent of Americans, however, believe that levels of illegal immigration are far lower than they actually are.
According to Breitbart, illegal immigration at the southern border on track to outpace every year of illegal immigration under former President Obama and take the U.S. back to Bush-era levels.
At current rates, experts project there to be 863,000 border apprehensions this Fiscal Year, though this only counts illegal aliens who are caught at the border and does not include those who successfully cross.
Since Fiscal Year 2010, the number of border crossers and illegal aliens apprehended trying to enter the U.S. has been anywhere between 300,000 to 500,000.
In the Harvard/Harris Poll, though, less than two-in-15 American voters correctly said there are between 250,000 to 500,000 border apprehensions each year.
