HUGE NEW GALLUP POLL:

Solidly two-thirds of Americans now say it is time to make marijuana legal.

Cannabis legalization enjoys U.S. support by a more than two-to-one margin of 66% - 32%.

That's a supermajority.

GOP opposition to legalizing cannabis also dropped 4 points from 2017 -- a 6-point net swing in Republican attitudes toward marijuana over 12 months.
