A majority of Americans oppose “religious freedom” exemptions for government officials who wish to discriminate against same-sex couples while on the job, a new Associated Press-Gfk poll shows.

The stark change in opinion in such little time could be contributed in part to the fact that Americans experienced first-hand how harmful it can be when government officials decide to obey their own laws when Kim Davis, the defiant Kentucky county clerk who found fame after disobeying several court orders to issue same-sex marriage licenses, found herself in jail this summer.

The AP notes that the biggest change in opinion happened among Republicans. In July, 72 percent of Republicans favored religious exemptions, but now, only 58 percent still support them.

Notable changes were also recorded among Democrats. In July, 67 percent opposed religious exemptions, and recently, that number rose to 73 percent.
