If final polls are accurate, marijuana will soon be legal in Colorado (according to state law)

As reported in this TPM posting, two new polls from Colorado both showed majority support for the state’s marijuana legalization ballot initiative:

A ballot measure to legalize marijuana in Colorado is seeing consistent support according to a pair of polls released Monday.  The first poll, from Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling, showed support for Amendment 64 at 52 percent and opposition at 44 percent — a gap two points smaller than PPP’s previous poll from late October.  A SurveyUSA poll showed support at 50 percent and opposition at 44 percent, the first time support has reached the 50 percent mark in that firm’s polling since mid-September….

PPP’s poll, conducted from Nov. 3-4, surveyed 1,096 likely Colorado voters through automated telephone interviews and had a margin error of 3.0 percent.  SurveyUSA’s poll, conducted on Oct. 28, surveyed 695 likely voters via landlines and cell phones and had a margin of error of 3.8 percent.

UPDATE: Commentors have rightly noted that pot will be legal only under state law and will still be illegal under federal law no matter what Colorado voters do. I have added to my post title to be more accurate.
