This issue is really mundane and those for legalization are single-issue voters. No need to abandon them. I like Ted Cruz’s position that while he is against it, it is a state issue. It would be one heck pf a chess move if he campaigned on legalizing marijuana at the federal level, which is his actual position, though he hasn’t actually said that federal marijuana laws should be repealed.
Not that I'm disagreeing, but on what do you base this conclusion?
