A Gallup poll found that 41% of Republican voters support same sex”marriage”, as opposed to 55% in 2021 and 2022. A massive 88% of Democrats accepted gay marriage in the new poll; the 47-point gap between the two parties is the largest since Gallup first asked the question in 1996. 

By contrast, seventy-six percent of independents approve of gay “marriage”. In 1996, 16% of GOP members approved; 33% of Democrats and 32% of independents agreed, according to the Daily Wire.

In addition, the Gallup poll indicated that amongst those who go to religious services at least once a week, 33% said same-sex “marriage” was morally appropriate and 24% said gay-lesbian relations were socially okay. Gallup polling between 2020-2023 found that more Republicans attended weekly religious services than Democrats by 15 percentage points.

Also, the poll found that 86% of Democrats said gay or lesbian relations are morally acceptable; 38% of Republicans agreed, a drop from 2022, when 56% of Republicans concurred. 

When he wrote a likeminded opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the case that overturned Roe v. Wade, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas made the legal case for overturning Griswold v. Connecticut, Lawrence v. Texas, and Obergefell v. Hodges, the last of which guaranteed the right to gay marriage.

Justice Thomas explained that the three cases relied on substantive due process, which he called “an oxymoron that lack[s] any basis in the Constitution.”
