Poll: Strong Majority of Floridians Support Proposed Abortion Ballot Measure

Katherine Hamilton 1 Dec 2023

More than six in ten registered Florida voters would support a ballot measure codifying the “right” to abortion into the state Constitution, a new poll found.

Floridians Protecting Freedom — a coalition of left-wing groups, including Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Florida — is sponsoring an abortion ballot initiative for 2024. The language of the initiative states: “Except as provided in Article X, Section 22, no law shall prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient’s health, as determined by the patient’s healthcare provider.” The cited provision allows the state legislature to require parental notification before a minor has an abortion, with the option of a child asking a judge to grant permission.

A poll conducted by the University of North Florida’s Public Opinion Research Lab (PORL) between November 6 and November 26 with 716 registered voters and a margin of sampling error of ±4.37 percentage points found that 62 percent of respondents support the proposed amendment. Twenty-nine percent say they would vote against the measure, and nine percent either do not know or refuse to answer.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) notably signed a six-week abortion limit in April 2023, replacing the state’s previous 15-week limit. The law makes exceptions for the woman’s life or health and in cases of rape and incest under certain conditions.
The 15-week limit is currently on hold while the Florida Supreme Court determines if it is constitutional. The six-week limit will go into effect if the high court upholds the 15-week limit.

We'll see what happens.

I'm pro-life, but enough of pragmatist to know that this one issue sunk us in 2022, and it might happen again in 2024.

In 2022, almost every dim ad screamed womens rights 24/7.  We can not let them control the narrative again, or we are in for another 4 years of Pedo Joe, Greazy Sleazy Newsom, or Mooch.

A Fishrrman absolutely 100% fearless prediction:
This will pass with as big a margin -- or BIGGER -- than the one that just passed in Ohio.

Once again:
When the Supreme Court decided Dobbs, the decision did not benefit those on the right -- au contraire, it has become a bludgeon for the leftist/communists, who will henceforth swing it with as much force as possible, at every opportunity they can muster.

Sunk us? What sunk us is a stolen election and SCOTUS shirking their duties.

This issue was returned to the states where it rightfully belongs and that's what needs to be conveyed.

These abortion ballot initiatives will be in more states in 2024.

Each 2022 house race was stolen that prevented the expected Red Wave?

Not arguing the merit, I agree.  It's just that the dims were effective in winning elections by making GOP candidates Anti-Women on that issue.
