A large majority of voters support the 44-year-old Supreme Court decision that established women's abortion rights — and oppose efforts to end federal funding of Planned Parenthood — according to a new poll released Friday.

The Quinnipiac University poll — which shows 70 percent of voters agree with the Supreme Court's 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade — was released on the day anti-abortion demonstrators rally in Washington, and six days before President Donald Trump is slated to name his nominee to fill a vacancy on the high court.
