A recent poll has revealed that more than half of Missouri voters support adult-use cannabis legalization as activists work to place an adult-use measure on the state’s 2022 ballot. The poll, conducted by SurveyUSA, surveyed 1,782 registered voters between May 11 and May 15, according to a Riverfront Times report, and asked: “Should the use of marijuana for recreational use remain against the law in Missouri? Or be legalized?” Sixty-two percent of respondents said adult-use cannabis should be legalized, the news outlet reported; 71% of those in favor are ages 18 to 49, while 59% are ages 50 to 64. Only 46% of respondents over the age of 65 said they support legalization, according to the Riverfront Times, but only 35% of that demographic said that adult-use cannabis should remain illegal; 18% answered that they were undecided.
