#' @details
#'
#' "NFNO" = "Neither Favor Nor Oppose". All abortion prompts are on a 0-2 scale
#' where 0 is oppose, 1 is "NFNO", and 2 is favor. The respondent's party
#' identification is on a similar scale where 0 = "Democrat", 1 = "Independent",
#' and 2 = "Republican". The additive scale of abortion scores has a minimum
#' of 0 and a maximum of 16.
