A Nov. 27-30 poll of likely Florida voters by the Democratic-leaning SEA Polling and Strategic Design shows the Amendment 2 medical marijuana inititative with 55 percent support and 39 percent opposition. It takes 60 percent for passage. The poll found 77 percent of Democrats backing it, 64 percent of independents, and just 31 percent of Republicans.
Meanwhile, John Morgan is on the front page of today’s Tampa Bay Times talking about pushing for another vote in 2016 if he falls short this time:
Florida medical marijuana honcho John Morgan hopes for a victory on Amendment 2 when polls close on Tuesday. But a loss may not end the campaign, Morgan told the Tampa Bay Times on Friday. As long as the vote is close to the required 60 percent approval threshold, Morgan said, he will try again in 2016.
“I plan to win this,” he said, saying his internal polls show it winning by a thin margin. “But if I lose a battle, I can damn sure still win the war.’
