Poll: Californians support marijuana legalization
Most of the time a state assembly member or representative needs a little coaxing to do the right thing. So your friends at the Oaksterdam University decided to hire a polling firm to ask about legalization.
A majority of voters indicated they would vote for a measure to allow cities and counties the option to tax and regulate cannabis and make adult cannabis consumption legal (53% Support/41% Do Not Support/7% Undecided) The economic benefits of taxing cannabis persuaded many voters to support the proposed ballot initiative.
Poll Results:
- The Same as Alcohol – 50%
- More Strict Than Alcohol – 40%
- Less Strict Than Alcohol – 8%
- Undecided – 2%
This poll sample was only 600, but it’s just another growing indication that the Indica will soon be set free.

Tell everyone you know (as I have) to call their state senators and congressmen, insisting on a national vote.
A yes or no answer is all that’s required: Legalize cannabis and its derivatives for industrial, medicinal, and recreational use?
We’ll see how the numbers come out…
I am so happy to see this happening in my lifetime. I just hope it goes all the way. If it does, trust me other will fallow. Just like Massachusetts.
Sativa too?
