Do you think Amy should give up her baby for adoption?
by The Secret Life of the American Teenager
In a Facebook poll of 3,020 respondents, 39.1% chose “No—Amy and Ben can raise the baby together.”. How we count
The leading No option opened with a modest cushion and spent eleven days refusing to grow it much or shrink it away — never below a 50-point relative edge over the top Yes answer, never above 64. It closed at 39.1% to Yes's 12.2%, but the real contest was one door down: two "No" answers, 1,180 votes to 1,121, split by less than 60 votes out of 3,020 cast.
Combine the two Nos and they own 76.2% of the room — this was never a fight over whether Amy keeps the baby, only over who helps her raise it. Ben and Ricky finished 2.0 points apart, the tightest margin on the board, while both Yes options trailed far behind, never threatening the top of the standings at any point in the poll's run.
