Contributing sentiments towards policy:

63% : Her nomination was opposed by anti-abortion groups who worried - correctly, it turned out - that she would not overturn Roe v. Wade.
46% : Would O'Connor use her high profile to promote a Constitutional amendment that would explicitly declare that women have equal rights under the law, Biden asked during her Senate confirmation hearings.
43% : During her hearings, O'Connor said she was personally opposed to abortion but would base any decision on the facts of a case and applicable law, not on her personal views.
