Live Coverage Of The First Democratic Debate

Perhaps it’s not surprising, but recreational marijuana legalization is supported by the majority of Democrats. According to an April 2015 CBS News poll, 60 percent believe marijuana use should be legal. Even a majority of all Americans (53 percent) are now in favor of it. With regards to medical marijuana, 84 percent of all Americans are for it.

Since you brought that insider/outsider poll up, Harry, it’s also worth noting one other interesting thing about it. It found that in March, just 36 percent of Republicans wanted an outsider — but that number grew to 65 percent by September. So we may be confusing cause and effect. If Republicans became attracted to Trump and Carson, for whatever reason, they may then go ahead and tell voters that they want an outsider. Likewise, when Democrats say they prefer an insider, that may just mean they like Hillary Clinton.
