New Prop 19 poll results released....
...and with two weeks to go before the election, support for the measure has slipped from last month.

Support To Legalize Marijuana Drops Below Majority
Today, 44 percent of likely voters plan to vote for Proposition 19â??the measure that would legalize marijuanaâ??while 49 percent plan to vote against it, with 7 percent undecided. This is an 8-point drop in support since September (52% yes, 41% no, 7% undecided). Support has declined among Democrats (56% today, 63% September), dropped sharply among independents (40% today, 65% September), and remains low among Republicans (30% today, 32% September). Support has declined across nearly all demographic groups, most strikingly among Latinos (42% today, 63% September). Most likely voters say the outcome of the vote on Proposition 19 is important (52% very important, 28% somewhat important). Those planning to vote no are more likely to consider the outcome very important (67%) than those planning to vote yes (40%).

Im skeptical that its going to pass, to much greed involved.Plus from post from the various news sites comments alot of supporters dont even know that you can vote from home via mail. When it comes down to it i believe alot of folks will be staying home getting stoned...oops i forgot was today election day? Hope i am wrong. I am sick of living in fear simply because I have a few plants in my home. I am not able to get a medcard for my pain because i have a federal drivers license. In the end i think greed will prevail.Btw people you dont have to wait until November 2, I voted 2 weeks ago. Go online and request a mail in ballot.

As am I, although it appears to me to be more of a case of the fear campaign being waged by the Attorney General and cops than growers not wanting it. In many cases, the reactions to Prop 19 remind me of the "Yes on 8" campaign that overturned same-sex marriages. The sheeple will vote their fears if you push the right buttons... :wtf:
Moreover, if Prop 19 doesn't pass it will set back marijuana legalization by a decade or more. :(
Mailed in my yes vote last week, but getting my 215 card just the same.

^ no problem. intrade.com sells "shares" on whether an event will happen or not. If it does it pays $100/share. If it doesn't happen it pays zero. Then it trades daily. I don't know much more than that but I would bet :jointsmile: that if people have actual cash riding on it they follow it pretty closely . .
I use their charts as kind of an indicator but I'm not sure if it really means much or not to be honest. :jointsmile: there was a huge spike in the price on April 20th of this year. :stoned:
