Votes#Polls
Section
Updated
9/20/02
Two weeks ago, DRCNet linked
to a new Votes/Polls section of the impressive MarijuanaInfo.org web site
by the A-Mark Foundation. We didn't realize at the time that work
was still progressing on the section. Votes/Polls now has 72 medical
marijuana polls listed, as well as hyperlinked windows providing background
on the polling groups, including their missions, credibility rankings and
whether they have positions on the medical marijuana issue.
The polling summary is particularly
relevant to this week's lead story of escalating raids and arrests against
medical marijuana patients and providers in California. While the federal
government seeks to squash the medical marijuana movement without regard
to state or local sanction for it, it couldn't be more clear when looking
at the poll results and votes over time that public opinion is against
them.
