If your confused its best not to answer that question, but some people think they have to answer every one.

There might be some insignificant number of people who really were against the points behind the Emancipation Proclamation, also probably another handful of people who support the 13th amendment but think that Lincoln exceeded his authority with the Emancipation Proclamation (and with some of his other actions as well). But how many for both of those combined? 2 percent? 2 tenths of a percent? Less? Certainly much less then 20%.

Its probably mostly an issue with confusion about the question and/or an issue with poor methodology. I don't specifically have evidence of weak methodology but the reports of the poll have given no information about the methodology at all, so we have no real way of knowing where the numbers come from.
