POLL: Most Americans Want Kim Davis to Do Her Job<\/b><\/p>\n

A new poll shows most Americans want antigay Kentucky Clerk Kim Davis to be required to do her job, namely to issue marriage licenses same-sex<\/a> couples<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Davis returned to work Monday<\/a> in Rowan County, and did not block her staff from issuing any licenses, as ordered by the courts and Kentucky’s governor. <\/p>\n

The Washington Post-ABC News poll<\/a> found 63 percent of those surveyed say Davis should be required to do so regardless of her religious objections.<\/p>\n

According to pollsters, almost one in two, or 45 percent, approved of the decision by a federal judge to send Davis to jail for not complying with his order to issue those licenses. And 16 percent preferred Davis be forced to issue the licenses but were against sending her to jail for her refusal. <\/p>\n

Nearly three-quarters of respondents said when civil rights and religious beliefs conflict, it is more important to treat everyone equally than to accommodate someone’s objections based on faith. And it wasn’t just Democrats but Republicans, liberals and conservatives who offered broad support for that concept.<\/p>\n

The Post-ABC poll was conducted Sept. 7 to 10 among a random national sample of 1,003 adults, including land-line and cellphone respondents. Overall results have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.<\/p>\n
