Contributing sentiments towards policy:

45% : Abortion is currently legal in South Carolina until 22 weeks of pregnancy, though there are only three clinics in the state and various regulations mean they generally can't offer abortions beyond the first 12 weeks.
37% : The more conservative House wanted to pass a ban on abortion beginning at conception, but it failed three separate times as the Senate was unable to overcome a filibuster by the chamber's five women -- three Republicans, one Democrat and an independent.
