What Does Super Tuesday Mean for Cannabis Legislation?

Posted on March 1, 2016 at 11:15 AM

The biggest day of the primaries is upon us, with more delegates up for grabs on March 1 than any other time in the race. While marijuana reform is not a priority for most primary voters, the candidates' positions on cannabis could have an impact on how voters perceive them – especially in states where marijuana policy is being discussed.

 

Only two out of 22 Super Tuesday races are happening in a state or territory where cannabis is completely illegal. Most states have some form of medical marijuana in the books – even if it's just provisions for non-psychoactive CBD oil. Then there are the cannabis-friendly states of Colorado, which is having Democratic and Republican caucuses, and Alaska, where Republicans will be caucusing.

 

While some analyses show that Bernie Sanders could have a leg up on Hillary Clinton thanks to his more progressive policies on pot, there probably aren't that many marijuana-driven voters. "What is more likely is that his position on marijuana policy is part of a broader set of things that set him apart from her. It's the notion of what makes him viewed as a more progressive candidate," said Mason Tvert, director of communications at the Marijuana Policy Project.

 

With that in mind, let's have a look at the Super Tuesday races where cannabis legalization is most important...........
