First, the usual caveats.

This is not a scientific poll. It's a voluntary reader survey.

We asked our readers to answer six questions to help us get a sense of what our audience believes about marijuana legalization in Alabama. Nearly 6,000 readers took part.

The response, across party lines, was overwhelmingly in favor of some degree of legalization. Legalization for recreational use, with regulation and taxes attached, was the most popular option among the respondents.

Most said they had used marijuana before, and five percent said they were using it while taking the survey.

So there you go. What do you make of the survey? Let us know in the comments below.
