Contributing sentiments towards policy:

46% : Same-sex marriage opponents did, however, vote out three Supreme Court justices who were part of the unanimous opinion.
46% : That could change in the future, Shelley speculated, if the U.S. Supreme Court were to strike down the Affordable Care Act or overturn the Roe v. Wade abortion rights decision.
43% : After the Iowa Supreme Court's decision legalizing same-sex marriage, some people in 2010 called for a convention to put forward a constitutional prohibition.
29% : 'I think that would likely trickle down to the Iowa level and there could be a push in 2030 for something like criminalizing abortion,' he said.
