Verification note. Field dates, population, sample size and margin of error are stated in the chart footnote of the Morning Consult analysis page, which is live. The two percentages recorded are quoted in the article body; the chart itself is an image, so the remaining items in the battery and all crosstabs could not be read. No crosstab PDF for this study was located. Item wording is the journalist's rendering of the chart labels, not a topline, hence question_text_verbatim false. A companion survey of 1,979 registered voters on classroom instruction was fielded the same days but its trans-specific figures are only in image charts.
Figures below are transcribed from these documents. Where they disagree with the source, the source governs.
Questions asked (2)
whether gender-transitioning care for children is a major threat
Thinking specifically about social issues, is each of the following a major threat to the United States?
Allowing children to receive gender-transitioning care
Wording reconstructed from: Morning Consult analysis 'Navigating Wokeness', chart 'Transgender Issues Top GOP Primary Voters' List of Social Concerns'; the chart stem reads 'Share of potential Republican primary voters who said each of the following is a "major threat" to the United States when thinking specifically about social issues'. The item label is as rendered in the article text, not from a topline document.
Wording notes: 'threat to the United States' is an extreme frame applied to a medical decision | 'gender-transitioning care' is the pollster's term, not the clinical one | only the 'major threat' share is published; the full response scale is not shown | asked only of potential Republican primary voters
loaded_terms — the threat frame invites a security judgment about a health-care question and has no neutral counterpart; it is a message-testing construction rather than an attitude measure

whether trans athletes in college sports are a major threat
Thinking specifically about social issues, is each of the following a major threat to the United States?
Permitting transgender athletes to participate in college sports
Wording reconstructed from: Morning Consult analysis 'Navigating Wokeness', same chart as the youth-care item; label as rendered in the article text
Wording notes: 'threat to the United States' frame | only the major-threat share is published | asked only of potential Republican primary voters
loaded_terms — same threat framing as the youth-care item; the 8-point gap between the two is the usable comparison
