Gallup conducted the poll from May 1-24 and it showed a change from a similar poll they conducted in 2021.
According to Gallup, 69% of Americans believe transgender athletes should be able to play on sports teams that match their biological gender while 26% of Americans believe transgender athletes should play on teams that correspond with the gender they identify as.
In 2021, the poll revealed that 62% of Americans believe transgender athletes should be able to play on sports teams that match their biological gender while 34% believed transgender athletes should play on teams that correspond with the gender they identify as.
