Wade.
40% : "Abortion being such an intimate circumstance and procedure, the context behind abortions and the stories we have heard of what has brought people into the clinics - they're not up for debate and they're not up for people to comment on and they're not up for people to argue or have to defend."
39% : At least 26 states are likely to ban abortion, according to the Guttmacher Institute.
37% : "If we lose the veto override power in the N.C.G.A. this November, we will lose access to abortion in North Carolina," Pittman said.
