Good news!
“The conservative shift in Americans’ views on abortion that Gallup first recorded a year ago has carried over into 2010. Slightly more Americans call themselves ‘pro-life’ than ‘pro-choice,’ 47% vs. 45%, according to a May 3-6 Gallup poll. This is nearly identical to the 47% to 46% division found last July,” reported Gallup last month.
Most Americans are also pro-life in their views on restricting abortion.
Gallup analyst Lydia Saad writes, “Americans are rather conservative in their stance on abortion, with 61% now preferring that abortion be legal in only a few circumstances or no circumstances. By contrast, 37% want abortion legal in all or most circumstances.”
