Verification note. Question wording, topline and the full published crosstab column transcribed from the McLaughlin & Associates public release deck (slide rendered to image and read, because the figures are chart graphics and the crosstab column mis-orders under PDF text extraction). Bar-chart components sum to the printed nets, confirming the reading. McLaughlin's public release decks state the population and field dates but carry no methodology page: mode, sample frame, weighting and margin of error are all undisclosed. The deck's cover states 'General Election Likely Voters' and field dates January 13-18 but does not print the sample size, so sample_size is null rather than assumed from McLaughlin's usual n=1,000.
Figures below are transcribed from these documents. Where they disagree with the source, the source governs.

Wording notes: 'biological men' is the only descriptor offered for trans women and girls | applies 'men' to high school girls' sports, a category mismatch that maximizes the perceived incongruity | bundles college and high school into one item | no counter-consideration offered
loaded_terms — describing trans girls as 'biological men' competing against 'high school girls' does the persuasive work inside the stem; the item measures reaction to that description rather than to any actual eligibility policy
