Poll after poll shows that the overwhelming majority of Americans feel that medical marijuana should be legal. Earlier this fall, a Gallup survey found that 58% also support the legalization of cannabis for adult use - the first time a clear majority of the population has favored legal marijuana. In 1969, when Gallup first asked the question, just 12% of respondents backed the idea.
