North Carolinians remain firmly supportive of legalizing marijuana in the state, according to a new Elon University poll.
The poll, conducted Aug. 21-31, found 75% of respondents support legalization of medical marijuana, with only 11% opposing it, while recreational use saw 55% support. There is a significant partisan divide, with Democrats more likely to support legalization. On intoxicating THC seltzers and gummies, 53% supported legalization, and an overwhelming majority agreed hemp-based products should only be sold to people over 21. The poll numbers have remained largely unchanged from a 2021 survey.
Earlier this summer, state lawmakers shelved House Bill 328, which would have imposed new restrictions on the industry, and a federal spending bill passed last year would put limits on the amount of THC allowed in products.
