The majority of Americans are pro-choice; the majority of the Supreme Court are not

From NPR -

In a new U.S. poll, a majority identify as 'pro-choice' for the first time in decades

The percentage of Americans who consider themselves "pro-choice" has risen in the past year to 55%, its highest level in decades, according to a Gallup poll released Thursday.

That increase mainly was driven by Democrats, wrote Lydia Saad, the polling firm's director for U.S. social research, in a summary of the survey's findings. She attributed the shift to the recent Supreme Court draft opinion suggesting a possible end to Roe v. Wade.

Gallup surveyed more than 1,000 U.S. adults by telephone over three weeks beginning May 2 — the day Politico published a draft opinion suggesting that the Supreme Court could soon overturn Roe v. Wade. That decision would enable many states to dramatically restrict or ban abortions.

The Supreme Court's leaked majority opinion is here.

From the Gallup poll -

Now, I realize that public policy issues aren't popularity contests and opinion polls doesn't mean that the pro-choice side is correct.

However, the dearth of facts on the anti-choice side adds credibility to the pro-choice side.
