One of the perks that comes with commissioning polls is that you generally get to spin the results. That’s most definitely true with a new poll billed with this screaming headline: “NEW MARIST POLL MAKE DRAMATIC AND SUDDEN MOVE TOWARD PRO-LIFE LABEL.” The poll sponsor in question was the Catholic men’s organization, the Knights of Columbus, which has militantly opposed legalized abortion for many decades.
The Knights have had a history of finding what they are looking for in polls on abortion policy. CONT.
