Poll Says The Smell Of Pot In Public Places Is Pretty Prevalent

A Stockton University poll that came out just as Cape May County’s first licensed cannabis retailer is poised for a grand opening found that 57% of those polled reported smelling marijuana in public places. It found that 29% said they smell it often in public spaces, while an equal number, 28%, said they smell it sometimes. The Cape May County Herald reports while a majority said the smell does not bother them, one in five (19%) said it annoys them a great deal. Another 28% said it bothers them slightly. According to the poll results, 29% have often (14%) or sometimes (15%) picked up the scent coming from a neighbor’s house. A near-majority, 49%, said they never smell it at home.
