A recent poll conducted by Talk Business & Politics-Hendrix College shows that three potential ballot issues in Arkansas have varying chances of passage in the upcoming November election. The survey, which polled 696 likely voters with a margin of error of +/- 4.6%, asked about Issue 1, a proposed expansion of lottery scholarships, Issue 2, affecting a casino license in Pope County, and Issue 3, expanding medical marijuana laws.
Issue 1, which would allow lottery funds to be used for vocational programs, had overwhelming support at 86%. Issue 2, requiring local approval for future casino licenses, had 42% support, while Issue 3, expanding medical marijuana access, garnered 54% support. Although Issues 2 and 3 are still facing legal challenges, the poll results suggest a likelihood of passage if they make it onto the ballot.
Analysis from experts included in the survey suggests that Issue 1 is almost certain to pass, while Issues 2 and 3 have a chance of success but are less certain due to undecided voters. Campaigns for and against the issues will play a crucial role in shaping public opinion in the final stretch before the election. Overall, the survey highlights the potential impact of these ballot measures on Arkansas voters and the importance of well-funded campaigns to sway undecided voters.
The methodology of the poll, which includes a breakdown of voters demographically, is available for further review. Media outlets are encouraged to use the poll results with proper attribution and a link back to the original story.
