It’s impressive that someone has done a poll in the US with only 1/3 of respondents wanting to abolish ICE. It was Third Way, who would like you to think of them as moderate.

When you look more closely you can see how it was done. The 34% figure is for “We need to abolish ICE and halt all immigration enforcement inside the country”.  These two policy changes are not especially closely linked — the US had immigration enforcement for a long time before creating ICE — and the first proposal, rather than the more extreme second one, is given the headline.
