New Poll: 52% Think Supreme Court Will Rule Against Gay Marriage

Most Americans predict the U.S. Supreme Court will eventually define marriage as a union between a man and a woman, a national poll indicated Thursday. And most Americans would prefer the court to rule that way, the Angus Reid Public Opinion poll found.

The online survey of a representative national sampling of 1,000 U.S. adults indicated 52 percent believe the justices will define marriage as a heterosexual union, while 28 percent think the court will define marriage federally as a union between two people, regardless of gender.

Fifty-eight percent want the court to define marriage as heterosexual only, while 34 percent would like no gender limitations, the survey found. Slightly more than a third, or 34 percent, say couples of the same sex should be allowed to marry, while 26 percent say they should only be allowed to form civil unions.
