A new poll shows Amendment 2, a proposed Constitution amendment to expand medical marijuana use in Florida, is close to passing. A poll from the Florida Chamber of Commerce unveiled on Monday finds 58 percent of those surveyed back Amendment 2 while 36 percent oppose it. The amendment needs 60 percent support in the November ballot to pass.

The poll of 806 likely voters was taken by Cherry Communications for the Florida Chamber on June 11 and had a margin of error of +/- 3.5 percent.
