"Two graphics from this week's focus story - ""Abortion opponents have a new voice"" - a profile on Charmaine Yoest from Americans United for Life. From the story:  According to a Pew Research Center for the People & the Press survey conducted in February, 54 percent of Americans believe abortion should be legal in most or all cases, while 42 percent said it should be illegal. Gallup polling has fluctuated in recent years, though the divide between Americans who self-identify as ""pro-choice"" versus ""pro-life"" has narrowed considerably since the mid-1990s when there was more than a 20 percentage-point edge among those favoring reproductive freedoms. In a 2009 Gallup poll, 51 percent of respondents said they were ""pro-life"" while 42 percent were ""pro-choice."" But Gallup's 2011 numbers indicate that 49 percent call themselves ""pro-choice"" compared with 45 percent who are ""pro-life.""  Read the full story."
