Support for legal abortion reaches an all-time high as Democrats hope to draw voters, while Republicans pivot in key Senate races to align with Trump. Swing-state voters consider abortion very important to their vote, according to the latest Bloomberg News/Morning Consult poll. Polls reveal changing voter views on abortion as Democrats aim to make it a central theme in the 2024 elections. Trump's stance on leaving abortion to the states is seen as less harmful, with some Republicans and independents finding him vulnerable on the issue.
