Tools used: Matplotlib
These surveys each include around 5,000 respondents sampled to represent the total population as well as possible. Since it’s a fairly low number, I haven’t included intermediate percentage values because it varies quite a lot from survey to survey. I don’t think this type of surveys are great for looking at a single point in time, but they do just fine to detect trends.
Why did you keep the refused answers?
I honestly don’t get the „legal in all cases“ camp.
Before your heads all collectively explode – „all“ means **all**, including potentially a week before a completely healthy birth of a fully capable to live baby.
Yes, I understand that these things are rare. But then if you don’t support these rare cases, why not choose „legal in most cases“? Are we afraid of some slippery slopes even in polls or something?
Edit: illegal in all cases is similarly as stupid (such as for an ectopic pregnancy), but it’s less than a third as popular as „legal in all cases“, so it doesn’t stand out as much as a serious potential policy.
Overturning Roe v Wade is impressive evidence that a decades long campaign by dedicated and well funded activists can succeed in the face of public opinion.
The total of mostly legal+ went from 55% to 61%, which is not insignificant, but it is wild. Having said that the question at the top and the answers don’t quite align. How much do you favor abortion is a different question to Do you think abortion should be legal? A person could be personally against abortion, but also against enforcing their beliefs onto the entire society.
A lot of these also don’t go into what should the penalty be for abortion. Speeding is illegal, murder is illegal – but the penalties are vastly different.
I’m not a fan of this type of chart. I can’t tell what the values are except for the start and end of the range. Similar to the issue with pie charts.
If you’re not a woman your opinion doesn’t matter.
Nobody ‘favors’ abortion, they just understand it’s a necessary procedure sometimes
Favor is a strong word isn’t it. It’s almost like ‚ hey, do you want to go to the beach or kill a baby?‘
‚I’d favor killing the baby‘
