A recent poll from the University of Houston's Hobby School of Public Affairs found that 62 percent of Texan adults support the legalization of recreational marijuana, while 79 percent think medical marijuana with a prescription should be permitted.

A new poll shows Texans want to ban THC but are in favor of legalizing the use of recreational marijuana. THC or tetrahydrocannabinol is the main psychoactive chemical component found in cannabis and is what causes the sensation of feeling high.

But most Texans think it’s time for a change. A survey released today by the Hobby School of Public Affairs at the University of Houston found that 62% of surveyed Texans want to legalize recreational marijuana use, and almost three quarters said the same about gambling.
