            Democrats’ Self-ID on Abortion, 1995-2024

            12% pro-life in 2024. 34% in 2012.

            Going by

            Democrats’ Views on Legality of Abortion, 1975-2024

            It’s 61% pro-choice, 31% limited abortion, 3% totally illegal in 2024

            It’s 40% pro-choice, 41% limited abortion, 13% totally illegal in 2012

            Compare that to

            Republicans’ Views on Legality of Abortion, 1975-2024

            12% pro-choice, 64% limited abortion, 23% totally illegal in 2024

            9% pro-choice, 61% limited abortion, 28% totally illegal in 2012

            Unless we’re going to count the GOP both now and then as a pro-choice party, the fact is that the Dems being majority pro-choice is a recent phenomenon.

              True, I just see pro-life people as all forms as illegal. Where as limited to me is still pro-choice because that phrasing could mean people who agree that 3rd trimester shouldn’t be allowed type of opinion, as they do in most of the EU.
