Another phony poll. These numbers are as meaningless as a lotto prediction.

Hey, Pew! Who did you have leading the presidential race on Nov 7?

The poll is a referendum on American ignorance of the Constitution. I would bet that not one in ten supporters of Roe v Wade could give an explanation of how it relates to any provision of the actual Constitution.

Public opinion, regardless what it is, will never dissuade me from opposing the unbridled murder of infants.

>> 69% of Americans say the historic ruling, which established a woman’s constitutional right to abortion in the first three months of pregnancy, should not be completely overturned.

Too vague. This takes advantage for the “incest and rape” lie to permit people to believe that incest and rape make up a significant number of abortions. It also adds in the “first trimester only” people with the “abortion anytime for any reason” zealots.

Does anyone believe any poll on any subject anymore? This is all propaganda folks. Believe only what you see and touch.

Well I’ll bet you 8 and 10 or 9 and 10 said that marriage should be between a man or a woman but that didn’t stop the Supreme Court did it?

There is a percentage of the population that favors no penalty for murder; shall we strike laws against murder?

Obviously not.

Just because this example has a smaller population percentage than those that want to keep RVW, it does not make it right.

As America has become more secular and less religious, abortion is now considered a medical procedure by the a great many Americans, probably a majority and certainly among women.... Got to face the facts

Even women who would not personally have an abortion would often choose to have the procedure be available as an option and not to have the act of abortion criminalized

The issues are, at what point does it go beyond being a medical procedure and become an act that terminates viable life?

And who pays for it- the individual? or the government? Or the government forcing it to be paid and performed by individuals regardless of their religious beliefs

Anyone who grandstands on overturning Roe V Wade or banning abortion, is just that- grandstanding. They will not be elected to office for proposing to ban a medical procedure that many women believe may in some cases be necessary and a matter of personal choice between a women, her doctor, and her God

The only way to reduce it is through educating the population in morality issues and persuasion on that basis, so that the individual makes a choice against it. Laws will not change women’s hearts. May only harden them.

And letting the States impose such restrictions, rules and limits that their residents will legislatively support

I think this is where this administration will be on this issue

I think this is just fact

More than 40 years after the Supreme Court’s Roe v. Wade decision, 69% of Americans say the historic ruling, which established a woman’s constitutional right to abortion in the first three months of pregnancy, should not be completely overturned.

Maybe that is because 70% of American’s have not the slightest idea how their government is supposed to work.

If Roe v Wade is overturned it would be up to the individual state to deal with how abortions would be handled. Abortion would not be suddenly illegal across the US.

A little known fact is that abortion was legal in New York prior to the Roe v. Wade decision.

Democrats want to kill babies, most of them Black. “You know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.”

With abortion and many other issues, it’s all in the way you frame the question. I can run a poll at any mall or busy street corner and get most any response you want.

Abortion is an extreme case of this. The abortion topic makes people uncomfortable for two reasons. Abortion itself is a grisly topic. Also abortion is politically divisive.

When most people feel uncomfortable they will give whatever response eases the discomfort. That is the key to driving any poll on any issue. Structure the poll to make people feel uncomfortable. Then give them an easy way to relieve the stress.

What do you expect with a satanic “education” indoctrination system along with pedophile satanists who control “programming” in HollyWOOD......which is embedding irrational and evil (satanic) worldview into our children.

There is no such “Natural” Right to kill your own genetic offspring in a so-called “Justice” (virtue) system when Justice is the Queen of Virtue and the only rational “justice” system is based on Christian Ethics only-—not satanism or paganism or worldview where Vice is Virtue.

So. with the destruction of the Minds of our children, deliberately by a system of brainwashing into satanism-—we have irrational “adults” who “think” that vice is virtue. Abortion and Sodomy are antithetical to a Virtue system based on Right Reason and Laws of Nature (and nature’s God), but the evil Marxists have been erasing history, theology, philosophy in our children to make them into non-thinking ideologues who only “think” the way they are programmed-—inside the State Box.

Abortion and Sodomy have to be removed as “protected” entities in our so-called “justice’ system. There is no natural right (all come from God and predate governments) to kill babies in the womb-—nor is there a natural right to sodomize other human beings-—both are evil, vile, dehumanizing, irrational behaviors of nihilism (satanism/a religion).

All ideas promote a “faith” and the only “faith” our Justice System is based on is the rational one of Christianity—the one which created the Age of Reason and Modern Science and the US Constitution, Magna Carta etc. All other religions/faiths, ethic systems are irrational and satanic.

Pass a Life At Conception bill on the Federal level and there would be no need to “overturn” Roe v. Wade. It would simply become an outdated SCOTUS decision that no longer had any relevance.

Abortion was a proper subject of state police power before Roe. It could be that again, without any conclusion about the moral defensibility of abortion. The states are separate communities in a federation. A revision to Roe could get us out from under federal overreach, so you could take the fight to your state legislators. Abortion should be handled at the state level.

This poll means little. Most respondents, I’d guess, think repealing Roe vs Wade would ban all abortions and jail a significant number of their female relatives.

If you ask the question seven different ways, you’d get seven different answers.

Obviously. That’s what pollsters are paid to do: calibrate questions for calibrated results.

About seven-in-ten Americans oppose overturning Roe v. Wade

Whether true or not, it doesn't matter. Roe vs. Wade is purely unconstitutional. We The People never delegated authority over that aspect of our lives to the federal government.

Roe vs. Wade does not need to be overturned or repealed. It needs to be vacated as being outside the specified and enumerated powers of any branch of the federal government.

If we learned nothing else from the last election - polls are worthless.

Especially poll that want to influence not inform.
