Almost half of Democrats support considerable restrictions on abortion after the first trimester, with over two-thirds supporting a late-term abortion ban, according to a new poll.
According to the findings of a Marist Poll conducted on behalf of the Knights of Columbus released on Wednesday, most Democrat respondents support varying levels of restrictions on abortion.
The poll found that while 32% of Democrat respondents believed “abortion should be available to a woman any time she wants one during her entire pregnancy,” the remainder supported limits.
This included 19% who believed that “abortion should be allowed only during the first six months of a pregnancy” and 49% who believed in greater limits on abortion access.
The 49% included 29% who believed that “abortion should be allowed only during the first three months of a pregnancy,” 13% who believed that “abortion should be allowed only in cases of rape, incest or to save the life of the mother,” 3% who believed that “abortion should be allowed only to save the life of the mother,” and 4% who believed that “abortion should never be permitted under any circumstance.”
