Now I’m going to read you several items that may or may not appear on a future ballot. For each, please tell me if
you would be likely to SUPPORT or OPPOSE. [PROBE: VERY/SOMEWHAT]
3. First, state question 788 would legalize the licensed use, sale, and growth of medical
marijuana only in Oklahoma. Possession and use of marijuana is authorized through a
medical marijuana license that is valid for two years, rather than by a prescription. An
Oklahoma board certified physician must recommend the license using the same
accepted standards for recommending other medications and must sign the application
for the license.

Applications for individuals under 18 must be signed by two physicians and by a parent or
legal guardian. The Department of Health also issues seller, grower, packaging,
transportation, research, and caregiver licenses to those to meet certain minimal
requirements. A 7 percent state tax is imposed on retail sales of marijuana. Unlicensed
possession by an individual who claims to have a medical condition is punishable by a fine
not exceeding $400.

Knowing this, do you SUPPORT or OPPOSE State Question 788?

1. Strongly support 149 37.1
2. Somewhat support 82 20.4
3. Combined support 231 57.5

5. Somewhat oppose 34 8.5
