Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : So he no longer needs to court anti-abortion voters who've already seen him deliver.
43% : Only 38 percent of Republicans and those who lean toward the GOP believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases.
42% : Running for governor in 2012, he responded to the questionnaire by stating that abortion should be legal only to protect the mother's life.
37% : Do they support banning abortion after six weeks as Texas has done -- a point when a woman may not even know she is pregnant?
37% : Still, some conservatives believe that Pence, a Christian evangelical, is a better bet to pursue policies barring abortion altogether.
35% : Trump laid out those exceptions in 2019, within days of Alabama enacting a strict law banning abortion in every instance except if the mother's life was at risk.
32% : When Pompeo served as a Republican congressman from Kansas, he told an interviewer that he opposed abortion in cases where the mother was raped, contending that "that child -- however conceived -- is a life."
32% : He has said he would support abortion in cases of rape and incest, and when the mother's life is in danger.
32% : Right to Life in 2010, Pence, at the time a congressman, stated that abortion should never be legal.
22% : In 2016, Trump faced a sprawling primary field and doubts about whether he even opposed abortion.
15% : It's not clear whether Pompeo was suggesting that Trump may go wobbly once Roe is struck down and states regain power to ban abortion outright.
15% : Two of them, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, signed bills banning abortion that make no exceptions for rape and incest.
