  Chicago, IL:   Two-thirds of US adults favor a repeal of federal marijuana prohibition, according to nationwide  polling data  compiled by Harris Research. Sixty-six percent of respondents in a nationally representative sample endorse legalizing cannabis for adults, with support being strongest among millennials (79 percent) and members of Generation X (76 percent). By contrast, just under 50 percent of Baby Boomers (those born between 1946 and 1964) backed adult-use legalization. The results are consistent with those of other  recent national polls , including those by  Gallup ,  Morning Consult , and  Quinnipiac University , showing that a supermajority of Americans believe that marijuana ought to be legalized for adults.  When asked whether cannabis should be legal for medical purposes, 84 percent of respondents answered affirmatively – a percentage that is also consistent with prior polling. Additional polling information is available from  NORML .
