A different way to look at what is on this page:

Less than 10% oppose abortion in almost all cases.

More than 60% support abortion rights.

To force this data in to tranches of equal thirds is nothing more than a "divide the majority" tactic.

Just because you have been served crap, it doesn't mean that you need to eat it.
