Summary:

This poll is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of other political and social issues. Topics in this survey included the legalization of drugs such as marijuana, cocaine, and heroin, the Haitian crisis, the Whitewater hearing, and the death penalty. Respondents were asked whether they favored the legalization of drugs, whether possession of small amounts of marijuana should be treated as a criminal offense, and how they thought legalization might affect drug use and the spread of AIDS in the United States. The use of United States military force to restore President Jean-Bertrand Aristide's rule in Haiti was also addressed. Background information on respondents includes voter registration status, household composition, vote choice in the 1992 presidential election, political party, political orientation, education, age, sex, race, religious preference, and family income.
