Poll: 52% of likely voters support medical marijuana
PHOENIX — Arizonans appear to be ready to approve medical marijuana for the third time.
A new statewide poll shows 52 percent of likely voters in support of Proposition 203. Only 33 percent are opposed, with the balance undecided.
Pollster Earl de Berge also found the 405 likely voters he questioned earlier this month leaning in favor of Proposition 106. Billed as a constitutional guarantee of the right to control health care, one of its main goals is to undermine the mandate in the new federal health law that every person obtain insurance coverage.
But the race is still up in the air over Proposition 109 to provide state constitutional protections for the right to hunt and fish.
Proposition 203 would allow anyone with a doctor’s recommendation to get up to 2 1/2 ounces of marijuana every two weeks. The measure lists specific ailments for which the drug could be recommended.
