Americans’ support for marijuana legalization is down 7 percentage points from last year and stands at just over 50 percent, a new poll says.
According to a Gallup poll released Thursday, 51 percent of Americans favor legalizing cannabis use, while 47 percent oppose legalization. The approval figure is down from 58 percent last year, a result that garnered significant media attention as a sign that the legalization movement had considerable momentum.
Legalization advocates are coming off major midterm election victories in Oregon, Alaska and Washington, D.C., which joined Colorado and Washington state in legalizing marijuana. The survey was conducted before Tuesday’s election.
