This may surprise some people, but Texas voters have moved on the question of legalizing marijuana. A majority of Texas voters (53%) now agree with the majority of national voters that marijuana should be legalized for recreational use. Another 31% would legalize the use for medical purposes only, and 16% want to keep it completely illegal.
