The section on drugs asked two questions:
- Should all drug use/possession be decriminalized within the United States?
- Should marijuana be recreationally legal at a federal level?
This question pertained to the decriminalization of all drug use/possession, and saw very mixed responses on both sides of the aisle. Among those who stated they vote Democrat, 61.8% chose "Yes". Among those who stated they vote Republican, 42.9% chose "Yes", the same percentage as those who chose "No".

The next question saw resounding support and agreement on both sides of the aisle. 94.1% of those who stated they vote Democrat chose "Yes" and 64.3% of those who stated they vote Republican chose "Yes". This high overall support could be attributed to the young average age of the respondents in the sample group, however is also symbolic of changing opinions regarding this topic.
