(Disclosure: I am a proponent of Amendment 64)
A poll released today, by Public Policy Polling (PPP) shows support is growing for Amendment 64, the initiative on this year’s ballot to regulate marijuana like alcohol in Colorado.
Talking Points Memo reports:
The latest survey from Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling (PPP) shows that 47 percent of likely Colorado voters support Amendment 64, which will appear on the state ballot in November. That’s a small uptick since PPP’s June survey, which showed 46 percent support, but opposition to the measure is dropping. Only 38 percent of voters oppose Amendment 64 in Wednesday’s poll, down from 42 percent in June.
Among the results:
• the initiative is leading 44-35 among women voters.
• support is slightly greater among voters ages 30 to 45 (59%) than among those 18 to 29 (58%); among those 46 to 65, 41% are in support and 43% are opposed.
• among voters who identified themselves as “moderate,” the initiative is leading 50-32; of those who identified as “somewhat liberal,” 59% are in support and 18% are opposed; among those who identified as “somewhat conservative,” 38% support the initiative and 55% are opposed.

Unless the supporters of this amendment can come up with a concrete plan to address drug tourism, it’s dead come election day.
