“Maybe 60/40 on the pot. 80/20 or more for gay and welfare.”
Again, Source?
I am rejecting the premise that “plenty of Republicans smoke pot.” Plenty of course can mean a lot of things. But I suspect you are just basing this statement on your personal preference and/or personal experience.
I know about 100 Republicans - that is to say, 100 people that I know well enough to know they are registered Republican.
Not one of them, to my knowledge, smoke pot. Perhaps five I know smoked pot at one time, either experimentally or for a period of time, but none (that I know of) now.
I also don’t know one Republican (that I know of) that is gay.
So, that’s my personal experience.
I am sure some registered Republicans smoke pot, and I am sure that there are some registered Republicans who are homosexual. But I wouldn’t say “plenty,” and I wonder why you do.
Look at the prop 19 crosstabs on the polls.
