found support for automatically banning all abortions in Texas, if Roe v. Wade was overturned, at just 37%.was taken before the Supreme Court acted, if after Justice Samuel Alito’s majority opinion was leaked. The UT poll didn’t specifically refer to the Texas trigger law, noted Rice University political scientist Mark Jones, director of the poll for the Hobby School at UH.
“The proof of the accuracy of the YouGov surveys, at least those in which I have been involved, is in the pudding,” Jones said. On average, white Texans have more restrictive preferences in abortion policies, with half preferring policies under which abortion is banned outright or permitted only if the woman’s life is at risk or if the pregnancy was the result of rape or incest. That’s more than either Latino , or especially, Black Texans.
