You probably already knew this but more men favor legalization of marijuana as oppose to women. And of course younger, with a college education, and leaning toward liberal democrat support legalization 66% to 29%... While support for legalizing marijuana has never been higher (pun intended); it's interesting to note the polarization by: party, political leaning, education, age and gender. Political viewpoint also, not surprisingly, trend in polar opposites for Gay Marriage, Gun control, and Legal Abortion. There are roughly 72 million registered Democrats and 55 million registered Republicans... that leaves about 74 million independents. This is interesting against the backdrop that Forty percent of Americans describe their political views as conservative, 36% as moderate, and 20% as liberal. This marks a shift from 2005 through 2008, when moderates were tied with conservatives as the most prevalent group.
I still think if liberal Democrats put down the bong they would sway elections more toward the issues they support.
