GOP Congresswoman Touts New Poll Showing Majority Support For Marijuana Legalization In South Carolina

A strong majority of South Carolina adults support legalizing marijuana for both medical and recreational use, according to a new poll that’s being promoted by a Republican congresswoman from the state.

The survey from Winthrop University—which comes as state lawmakers work to advance medical cannabis legalization—found that three in four adults (76 percent) back the reform, including 80 percent of Democrats and 72 percent of Republicans.

Support for adult-use marijuana legalization stands at 56 percent, with 62 percent of Democrats in support. GOP South Carolina voters were evenly split on the issue, 45-45 percent. Overall support increased by two percentage points compared to Winthrop’s last poll on the issue that was released late last year.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), who sponsored a federal legalization bill last Congress, took notice of the cannabis findings.

Interesting findings re cannabis and gay marriage supported by the majority of people in South Carolina. Not as controversial as some would have you to believe. This tells me our state loves freedom.

Wish they’d asked about women’s issues and gun violence – maybe next time. https://t.co/zGiiiK0yAw
