1. About four in 10 Americans said they support abortion rights in a new Gallup poll — the lowest figure recorded by the organization since it began asking the question in 1995.

2. Fully half of Americans, meanwhile, told Gallup they were against abortion rights.

3. The results come as a rising number of religious groups file suit over the Obama administration's new contraception mandate, which is part of the 2010 healthcare law, arguing some forms of birth control are equal to abortion.

4. ...revealed a six-point drop in the number of self-identified "pro-choice" Americans since the question was last posed in July 2011.

5. ...the "pro-choice" identification had held a wide lead in the mid-1990s that narrowed gradually until 2009,...

6. The issue will be relevant throughout the election season, and the Gallup results suggest that Republicans who oppose abortion rights could find key swing voters sympathetic to their position.

7. Among political independents, the "pro-life" position outdoes the "pro-choice" one for only the second time since 2001, according to Wednesday's poll.

8. Among Democrats, the "pro-choice" position also lost 10 points in that period, from 68 percent to 58.

9. "Americans are increasingly identifying with the position of protecting human life," Dannenfelser said. "It’s not shocking that we’re seeing stronger pro-life opinions. This trend has been steady since the early '90s."
Gallup poll finds record low numbers of respondents identify as 'pro-choice' - The Hill's Healthwatch


This Gallup Poll is one of those 'supplementary' polls: not a Romney-Obama' poll but telling of the attitudes of the electorate.

The hand-writing is on the wall for all to read.
 
Is this seriously unexpected? The abortion movement is culling its support out of the human race. Those who dont support abortion will reproduce, while those who advocate abortion will use it and ensure that future generations wont.
 
Basically..you'd probably find a record low number of people that would allow for minorities having the right to vote.

That's not the point.

Civil rights should never be determined by Majorities.

i agree. But we aren't talking about civil rights. We are talking about abortion.

Is this one of those posts from the Left proving how much you love America, just hate Americans....?
 
"Pro-Choice" Americans at Record-Low 41%

20% of people think abortion should be illegal in all cases.

I agree with the overwhelming majority, abortion should be legal but not in all cases.


I agree with President Reagan. Let each of the 'laboratories of democracy' decide...and let folks vote with their feet.

For those of you who don't understand what she said, she is saying let the decisions be returned to the States. Where the Constitution says such decisions should be.

And if it was returned to the states this is what we will end up with:
Some states will ban it outright, no exceptions.
Some states will ban it with a few exceptions.
Some states will ban it with many exceptions.
Some states will allow it outright on demand.
Some states will allow it with a few exceptions.
Some states will allow it with many exceptions.
So if a woman that has money lives in a state that bans it with no exceptions she gets in her car or on an airplane, travels to the state where it is 100% legal and has her abortion.
And a woman that has no $$ or resources lives in that state she is forced by government to have her baby that SHE DOES NOT WANT AND IN MOST CASES HAS NO CLUE HOW TO RAISE.
Nothing much changes.
If you are anti abortion then do not have one.
How can Americans not know the facts?
 
Hmm and about 40% of whhite babies are born out of wedlock in America.
Coincidence?

Any amount of babies born out of wedlock is tragic. We seriously need to do some work to get this nation back on course and ensure that future generations recieve their right to have a mother and father married together to teach and support them. Of course, it's not going to be easy.

And if you are anti grand theft auto then do not steal a car, right? Does that fucking make sense to you?

Makes perfect sense to me.

Because NO LAW will ever stop a woman with $$ from having an abortion.
"I had to perform the abortion in the health intersts of the mother" said Doctor A through Z.
Give it back to the states and nothing changes.
Facts sure are a bitch in a democratic republic.
But of course it is easier to dictate abortion policy in Iran.

Abortion is not a civil right. I can prove that without even breaking a sweat.

If every doctor/nurse/whatever in the word stopped giving abortions the only want anyone could get one is by forcing someone else to do it, that is slavery. Civil rights never impose a burden on other people to do something.

You are not even making sense. The fact is abortion is not a right.
