Nearly 70 percent of those polled in a new survey say they would oppose President Trump declaring an emergency to build a wall on the Mexican border.

Sixty-nine percent of those surveyed in The Hill-HarrisX survey conducted Jan. 12-13 said they do not want the president to designate the border a national emergency site. Just 31 percent of respondents said they wanted such a declaration.

Trump has been flirting with the declaration to get the wall built and end a partial government shutdown that on Saturday became the longest such closure in U.S. history. 

The president has given mixed signals on whether the would declare an emergency, and on Monday said he did not want to do so at this time.
