Analysis: Most people in most states support legal abortion
on views of abortion, covering respondents in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. It found that not only that do most Americans believe that abortion should be legal in all or most cases, but most people in most states hold that position. Even Republicans are more than twice as likely to say that abortion should be legal in all or most cases than to say it should be banned completely.
The results of the state-by-state poll are shown below. In each state, the segment of the population that supports access to abortion is larger than the segment that opposes it . On average, there are 8.7 people in a state who think abortion should be legal in all or most cases for every one who thinks it should be illegal. In states that voted for Trump in 2020, the average ratio is 5.6 to 1.
It is the case that support for legal abortion correlates to presidential vote, even more than it does to the state’s White evangelical Protestant population. But even in the most Trump-friendly states, most people support access to legal abortion. Only in seven of the 25 states Trump won in 2020 does less than half of the population support abortion access; in two others, exactly half do.response to abortion over the past few years.
Among Democrats who support abortion access, a third now say it’s important candidates share that view, a doubling since 2020. Among Republicans who think it should be illegal, the importance of that position for candidates has fallen. The implication is clear. Abortion access is viewed as important for most Americans and as an increasingly important consideration when evaluating candidates. Republicans succeeded in overturning federal protections for abortion — but not without a political cost.
