'With abortion no longer a constitutional right, Americans are looking to the voting booth to have their voice heard on the issue.'
Pollsters found that 77% of Republicans, 73% of Democrats, and 67% of Independents believe that voters should"vote yes or no on whether abortion should be legal, when they are casting their ballot for other elected officials."
Though 54% of all respondents said they would vote"in favor of abortion legality," there was not majority support across all parties. While 76% of Democrats and 52% of Independents indicated that they would vote to protect abortion rights, only 34% of Republicans shared that position. An even higher share of respondents—60%—said they believe abortion should be legal in most or all cases. Broken down by party, 82% of Democrats, 63% of Independents, and 32% of Republicans held that view.
Only 40% of those polled said they were familiar with Kansas' ballot measure, which would've cleared the way for anti-choice state lawmakers to impose an abortion ban but was rejected by 59% of voters. "With abortion no longer a constitutional right, Americans are looking to the voting booth to have their voice heard on the issue," said Ipsos president Cliff Young."However, the divisions that exist across the states could bring legal, medical, and lifelong consequences for many parts of the country."
