The American public is rendering its initial judgment on the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and most disapprove of the ruling, including two-thirds of women who disapprove.
By more than a 20-point margin, Americans call it a step backward rather than forward for America. And women, by more than three to one, think the ruling will make women's lives worse rather than better.
Those who approve and in particular, the three-fourths of conservatives who do say they feel both hopeful and happy.
As they look ahead, those disapproving of Friday's ruling are especially likely to think the high court might someday limit or end birth control and also same-sex marriage.

(7,633 posts)it does not look good for a tsunami at the polls. Hopefully this will change once people realize the full implication of this. Republicans in particular are devoid of empathy. They only care if and when they get directly affected.
