America Becoming More Pro-Life According to Numerous Surveys

Numbers of national polling firms asked abortion/life questions in May of 2009 and got encouraging responses from the pro-life viewpoint. Here are some samples:

The well-known Gallup poll found 51% of Americans self-identifying as pro-life compared to 44% the previous year. Conversely, 42% self-identified as pro-choice compared to 50% the previous year. Only 33% called themselves pr0-life in 1995.

Rasmussen, Fox News and Pew Research polls also registered this strong shift to a pro-life position.

A survey of Latinos conducted by a Latino social networking web site found that 47% believe abortion should not be legal compared to 38% who want abortion legal.

A CNN poll found that Americans oppose President Obama’s pro-abortion record by a 2-1 margin. Of the 41% of Americans who are interested in the abortion issue, 65.8% oppose Obama’s pro-abortion views while 34.1% support them.

The May Gallup poll also found support for cloning and embryonic stem cell research dropping.

The Polling Company found that Americans don’t want Obama to appoint a pro-abortion activist judge to the U.S. Supreme Court. 82% oppose a judicial candidate who supports late-term or partial-birth abortions. 75% oppose a judicial candidate who supports the Freedom of Choice Act.

Obama may be President, but he and his pro-abortion allies appear to be losing the culture war.
