Medical Marijuana Amendment 2 in Danger, New Poll Shows

Amendment 2, a proposal to expand medical marijuana use in Florida, is in serious trouble according to a poll released on Monday.

The poll, commissioned by SaintPetersBlog and taken by St. Pete Polls, shows 52 percent of those surveyed support Amendment 2 while 39 percent oppose it and the remaining voters are undecided. When the undecided voters are asked if they are leaning one way or the other, opposition to Amendment 2 creeps up to 40 percent while support moves up to 54 percent.

For Amendment 2 to be added to the Florida Constitution, it will need 60 percent on the November ballot.

The poll of 3,128 Florida registered voters who said they were planning to vote in the election was taken from Oct. 8-11 and had a margin of error of +/- 1.8 percent.
