“According to a new Gallup poll, 58 percent of Americans support legalizing marijuana—the largest percentage ever in that survey. ‘Success at the ballot box in the past year in Colorado and Washington may have increased Americans’ tolerance for marijuana legalization,’ Gallup says. ‘Support for legalization has jumped 10 percentage points since last November and the legal momentum shows no sign of abating.’ Gallup cites personal experience with marijuana as a possible factor in rising support for legalization, noting that ‘a sizable percentage of Americans (38%) this year admitted to having tried the drug.'”
