There can no longer be any doubt. The American public overwhelmingly supports the medical use of marijuana. This exclusive analysis of 66 separate public opinion studies from the Ohio Patient Network clearly illustrates the overwhelming public support for providing patients legal access to this medicine. Check out the report's Key Findings and look into it in more depth by reviewing the links to its narrative and the documents that support it.

This report also matches polling data to election results in order to create an easy-to-understand model of possible election outcomes if this issue receives Democratic Party or Republican Party support. Third parties will seize this opportunity, if major parties do not, and either achieve similar results or tip an election, as they have already done.

In addition, this report includes a brief history of medicinal cannabis and highlights the impact of its prohibition both numerically and through personal accounts.

Many times, representatives of the Ohio Patient Network and groups like it have asked legislators and public officials to hear and act on their concerns, and many times, the response has been silence. OPN hopes that by collecting, tabulating, and reporting the findings of these sixty-six polls, current and prospective government officials will understand that the public has spoken on this issue. The time has come to legalize the medical use of marijuana.
