So, you are saying that the church-going Catholic is not necessarily pro-life? Your chart seems to indicated an average over the years of just under 50%.

On the other hand:

Before 1980, the Southern Baptist Convention officially advocated for loosening of abortion restrictions. During the 1971 and 1974 Southern Baptist Conventions, Southern Baptists were called upon "to work for legislation that will allow the possibility of abortion under such conditions as rape, incest, clear evidence of severe fetal deformity, and carefully ascertained evidence of the likelihood of damage to the emotional, mental, and physical health of the mother." W. Barry Garrett wrote in the Baptist PressBaptist PressBaptist Press is the official news service of the American Southern Baptist Convention based at the headquarters of the Southern Baptist Convention in Nashville, Tennessee.- Origins and bureaus :... , "Religious liberty, human equality and justice are advanced by the [Roe v. Wade] Supreme Court Decision." ."

I’m saying that Catholics support the Democrat party and their politics, including abortion, and until conservative Catholics learn that, then they cannot fix it, the conservatives in the Southern Baptists for example wrested back control from where their convention was drifting, now they are probably the most pro-life vote of any church.

Fighting to remain ignorant of how Catholics vote, will never result in a solution to a growing problem.
