One day after national Democrats took a step toward include support for same-sex marriage on their official platform, a new survey from the Pew Forum suggests that most members of the party would support the move.

According to the poll, conducted from June 28-July 9 among 2,973 adults, nearly two in three Democrats—65 percent—favor same-sex marriage.
