Seventy-two percent of those surveyed support women using the abortion pill to end a pregnancy if prescribed in person by a doctor, including more than 90% of Democrats and a majority of Republicans.

Political independents strongly support unfettered access to abortion medication, underlying the increasing political peril Republicans face over their wide-ranging pro-life stance.

A narrow majority support allowing women to obtain the abortion pill through the mail, without needing to physically see a doctor. But 77% of Republicans oppose that.
