Evidently Republicans are changing their tune.
YouGov’s latest research shows that most Americans still support legalization of marijuana, and that support for legalization has increased slightly, from 52% in December 2015 to 55% today. Most of this change is a result of changing attitudes among Republicans. In fact, for the first time, Republicans narrowly tend to support legalization, 45% to 42%.
Yeah. A slight increase of 3% in seven months (the poll was done in July). That is a heck of a rate of change for a politically divisive issue. If it keeps going at that rate support for legalization should be around 60% by October of next year.
