Yes, but it still doesn't change the fact that we *do* have religious based
laws despite there being "separation of church and state."  That being
said, did they all promise to do such things when they campaigned?  If any
didn't, their actions aren't the voters' faults.

Fixed it for you, and it is mostly true, especially of Biden.  Johnson and
his ilk had a good chance to fix the problem and didn't take it for
political reasons.

I don't know how many of the 7 million came across before that point, but
any after that point are at least equally on our Republican "friends" in
Congress.  I would bet that nearly all of those Republicans, including
Johnson, campaigned on one thing ("close the border!") but then did something
else ("don't close the border!").  So, in that case, that is on those
Republicans and not the voters.

Aside from Trump, I am leerly to trust that any other Republicans will
stick to any promise regarding closing the border.
