New poll shows Florida voters high on legalizing recreational pot
oughly 2 in 3 Florida voters plan to vote to legalize recreational pot in November.
That’s according to a new poll from the University of North Florida’s (UNF) Public Opinion Research Lab (PORL). That poll found higher support for Amendment 3, which would legalize marijuana use by adults age 21 and older, than for amendments on lifting abortion restrictions or for making School Board races partisan.
In total, about 66% in Florida support the measure, while 30% plan to vote against it. Just 4% of voters haven’t already made up their mind on the measure.
Florida law requires 60% of voters to support an amendment in order for it to become part of the state constitution. Even taking the poll’s 3.49-percentage-point margin of error into effect, the numbers show Amendment 3 on a smooth path to passage.
“After years of polling on marijuana in Florida, both medical and recreational, it is clear that the majority is in favor of legalization,” said Dr. Michael Binder, PORL faculty director at UNF. “Closing in on election day, despite some heavy campaigning, we’re seeing support for this amendment and is on track to exceed the 60% supermajority required to pass.”
