For decades, some political analysts have sought to depict Hispanic Americans as “socially conservative” — and indeed many of them are.

But a new poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows that a solid majority of this diverse population — whether they’re Catholic, Protestant or religiously unaffiliated — believe abortion should be legal in most or all cases.

It’s a finding of interest as debate over abortion access is in the spotlight ahead of the U.S. election on Nov. 5.

The Democrat’s presidential candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris, strongly supports abortion rights. Her Republican rival, former President Donald Trump, boasts about appointments he made to the Supreme Court that led to repeal of the nationwide right to abortion.
