John Morgan is a blooming idiot if he thinks his “medical marijuana” initiative will pass in 2016. It only got as close as it did because of it being not a presidential election in 2014

I'll take that bet. I don't think the fact that it was a non-presidential year helped the medical mj supporters. Don't young people turn out in better numbers in presidential elections vs non?

Opposition to medical mj is highly concentrated in the oldest age group. Support is strongest in the younger groups. The numbers from the FL exit polls are striking =>

Ages ==> Yes / No

65y + => 38% / 62%

50-64 => 58% / 42%

40-49 => 63% / 37%

30-39 => 68% / 32%

25-29 => 75% / 25%

18-24 => 83% / 17%
