A new Rasmussen poll indicates legalization of marijuana in
a “similar manner to the way alcohol and tobacco cigarettes are currently
regulated” has majority support both nationally and in Colorado.
At least one initiative legalizing small amounts of
marijuana for recreational use will be on the Colorado ballot.
Recent national polls have shown near or slight majorities
for legalization (Rasmussen 56% and Gallup 50%).
However, in an early May survey (non-robo poll) of
California voters found only 46 percent supported legalization, about the
percentage legalization received in the 2010 defeat of a statewide legalization
initiative.
Opponents to Colorado legalization have just started to
organize behind Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck. Proponents have already raised more than $2
million to get the initiative on the ballot.
