Looks like:

ban = 20%

limited = 50%

anything goes = 30%

https://news.gallup.com/poll/1576/abortion.aspx

So 70-30 for at least some form of restrictions on abortion.

Also notable from that poll, 48% of respondents consider themselves pro-choice, 48% pro-life.

If rtpg means banning abortion even when it would save the life of the mother or in cases of rape, it's true that few people support a ban that extreme.

But if rtpg means banning abortion except when it would save the life of the mother or in cases of rape, both sides do have roughly equal support.
