If you don't want to look it up....we're for them 56% to 41%.



All of the states:

1. Hmm..

What's up with the huge number changes from 6/13/05 to 8/15/05? Did something happen that would shift opinion greatly during that time frame?

One of the biggest changes...African Americans:

41 life/46 choice

33 life/65 choice


Well, not that I look at it, they made up only 2% of the sample so that probably explains that...but it looks like some of the other numbers jump a bit too.

Overall, these look good...glad to know Eastern Iowa is still not overrun by the crazies out west...lol.

2. Democrats

It looks like Democrats overwhelmingly are pro-choice...

8/15/05

26-life
71-choice

Good luck Blouin...you'll need it.

3. Seth, I must spank you

:spank: (which, from reading previous threads doesn't disappoint you...hehe)

The issue is not about life or choice - it is about allowing women to make decisions that effect their bodies and their lives. I know the poll said life/choice and maybe that's what your posting from. But Blouin is pounding his 'I'm for Life' drum a little too loud (because of Culver's position on the death penalty - which is very limited). Frankly, looking at what is about to happen with the Supreme Court, choice may very well be about life for some women.

:hi:

4. Ouch!

Yes, I was just posting what the poll read...

I prefer to to use choice and anti-choice.

Chill out on the beatings!

5. Sorry about the tough love

Next time I'll just nudge you a little

6. Let families decide vs. Let the government decide

for personal privacy rights or against personal privacy rights.

7. I agree, this isn't something for the Government to decide

and that is obviously what the majority of Iowans think as well. Now, if we can just get our elected officials and candidates to realize that!
