Very strongly agree

Pro-choice, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions

This stance aligns with the ACT party's principles of individual rights and freedoms, as well as their support for social services and education. They believe in reducing the number of abortions through these means rather than through restrictions.

Pro-choice, I don’t agree but the government has no right to ban it

While the ACT party is pro-choice, this stance aligns with their belief in individual rights and the government's limited role in personal decisions. They may not agree with the sentiment of disagreement with abortion, but they would agree with the government's lack of right to ban it.

Disagree

Pro-life, but allow in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child

While this stance is more nuanced, it still restricts a woman's right to choose, which is against the ACT party's principles. However, they might agree more with this stance than a complete pro-life stance.
