New Poll: Stealth Voters Pushing Prop 19 To Win 56-41

Are there voters who intend to pass Prop 19, but not tell anyone about it? The results of a new poll by Prop 19's backers say thousands of such voters might be saying ??no? when asked, but voting "yes" in private. Prop 19 is winning 56 to 41 in an automated poll of 1,043 respondents, according to a new poll by SurveyUSA. Commissioned by the Yes on 19 campaign, the poll differs from the recent LA Times/USC Poll that found the tax and regulate measure trailing by a wide margin. The difference is the live pollster. Yes on 19 says seventy years of cannabis prohibition is making people careful around live polling officials.
"As the polling shows, there still seems to be somewhat of a social stigma attached to marijuana and the politics surrounding it," said Dan Newman, a political strategist working with the Yes On 19 campaign. "We're confident that when Californians find themselves in the privacy of voting booths on Nov. 2, they will vote to end decades of failed and harmful marijuana policies. Very few people think the current policy is working."
Liberal blogger Josh Marshall, of the popular national blog Talking Points Memo is calling it a "reverse Bradley effect," a reference to the phenomenon of voters telling pollsters that they'll vote a certain way but then don't.
Legalization Nation heard of a private gathering over the weekend where the only person who was voting against the measure grew pot as income.
Given that kids are turning their parents in after D.A.R.E. class, workers can get fired for off the job pot use, and stoners are getting executed at gunpoint during pot raids, might there be a stigma against outing yourself as a Prop 19 voter?
You tell us.
on the ropes? perhaps. down for the count? no way. Prohibs are peeing their panties over the flawed USC poll, which is statistically meaningless. don't be discouraged by these meaningless bs polls, get out and prove them wrong.

The interesting (but closet fascist) Michael Savage has made a whole slew of claims regarding cannabis use. He is the chief anti-cannabis advocate in the state of California.

A look @ google schola sure does tell wonders about this epidemic of mercury poisoned cannabis. :rolleyes:
Its nothing but a strawman fallacy grouped with his appeal to (personal) authority....

Michael Savage is your chosen "devil" to potray in the Prop 19 battle?
Really? WOW. Funny stuff right there.
Outside Cali it seems a majority of publications seem to be pumping stories of how support for Prop 19 is losing steam currently......which seemed a little odd to me.

He's just a radio blowhard thats banned in England which is how he got famous in a way. No real following or anything. Just thought he was an odd target politically speaking.....but not really when most committed leftists only believe in free speech when its what THEY AGREE with and nothing else.....anything else must be silenced or banned....almost exactly like religous conservatives believe here in West Texas. How ironic.;)

oh, okay. thanks. yes, statists on both sides of the coin hate free speech but I don't think the poster posted to censor it. Read his sig.
I just personally became nauseated with the "red diaper doper baby" premise and but still hung in there for a bit more. :rastasmoke: Why was he banned in England? good taste, perhaps? :jointsmile:
