In a new USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll, even those Americans who oppose striking down the landmark decision recognizing abortion rights say by 2-1 – 59% to 29% – that the economy will be more important to their vote in November. Seven in 10 say the high court's action would have no effect on whether they choose to cast a ballot.
Only 16% of those who oppose overturning Roe v. Wade say abortion is the most important issue determining their vote – precisely the same percentage as those who support overturning it. By more than 2-1, 63% to 30%, they think abortion should be legal in all or most cases, not illegal in all or most cases.
Schuster, an independent, describes himself as being against abortion, but he adds that he supports exceptions to an abortion ban if, for instance, the pregnancy is the result of rape or if it threatens the life of the mother."There are limits," he said. "I was in the Navy; I was 18; I was in a relationship with a boyfriend who was not a very good boyfriend," said Stacy Hannah of Gulfport, Florida, describing her own experiences with abortion.
