Recent AJC poll shows only a handful of Georgians list abortion as top issue in upcoming election

Georgia Democrats who are hoping the battle over abortion rights will upend the midterm elections got mixed news from an Atlanta Journal-Constitution poll released this week.

Only a handful of Georgians — 5% — listed abortion as their top issue in the election, and more than half of likely voters indicated that the political divide over abortion won’t influence their decisions to cast their ballots in November.

The poll also indicated that nearly half of respondents said they’re more likely to vote for a candidate who wants to protect access to abortion. That includes about half of women and 90% of Democrats.
