By Michael J. Mishak The Associated Press MIAMI » Tied to an unpopu- lar president and his signa- ture health care law, Demo- crats in the nation's largest swing state see medical mar- ijuana as a potential antidote to political malaise in this year's midterm elections. Par ty operatives a re pushing a constitutional a mendment that would make Florida the first state in the South to legalize some pot use. Polls show the mea - sure has widespread public support, and it's particularly popular among young voters — a critical part of the Dem - ocratic coalition with histor- ically weak turnout in non- presidential election years. "I wish that it didn't take medical marijuana on the ballot to motivate our young voters," said Ana Cruz, for - mer executive director of the Florida Democratic Party. "But listen, we'll take it any way we can get it." Activists are also gather - ing signatures for medical marijuana initiatives in Ar- kansas, where Democrats are fighting to retain the gov- ernorship and a U.S. Senate seat, and Ohio, where the party is trying to oust GOP Gov. John Kasich. But those petition drives face signifi - cant organizational hurdles. The political world likely will be focused on Flor- ida in November for clues about the turnout poten- tial among young voters of pot on the ballot. At stake is the governor's office, as well as a handful of competitive House seats. In 2012, both Washington and Colorado saw spikes in youth turnout when mari - juana initiatives were on the ballot. This year, Florida could be a critical test case for whether those increases were an anomaly or the start of a trend in advance of the presidential election in 2016, when activists plan to launch legalization campaigns in at least six states, including battleground Nevada. "It's a smart move on the Democrats' part," said David Flaherty, a Colorado-based GOP pollster. "It's going to help them, no doubt about it." Florida Republicans argue that Democrats do not have a clear-cut advantage on med - ical pot, with public polls showing an overwhelming majority of GOP voters sup- porting it. They also say it's unlikely to excite young vot- ers in the way that legaliza- tion campaigns did in Colo- rado and Washington, where pot was sanctioned for recre- ational use along the lines of alcohol, or become part of a divisive culture war that could drive turnout. Nevertheless, the mari - juana initiative may be one bright spot for Democrats in an election year that could be grim for the party. Presi - dent Barack Obama remains unpopular, and Republicans are trying to make the elec- tions a referendum on his health care law. Gov. Rick Scott is making the health care overhaul a central issue in the governor's race and outside conservative groups, such as Americans for Pros - perity, are funding a barrage of negative ads against Dem- ocrats in a handful of swing- voting House districts. "I would rather have it on the ballot than not," said Steve Schale, a Democratic consultant who managed Obama's Florida campaign in 2008. "It could have a marginal impact, and a mar - ginal impact in Florida could be the difference between winning and losing." A Republican victory in a special House election last month in Florida un - derscored the Democrats' turnout problem. The St. Petersburg-area district has 2.4 percent more reg - istered Republicans than Democrats, but GOP voters outnumbered Democrats by 8 percentage points among those who cast ballots. Some Republicans paint the medical marijuana initia - tive as a ploy by Democrats to help former Gov. Charlie Crist, a Republican turned Democrat, reclaim the gov - ernorship. Crist supports the measure, saying it's "an issue of compassion." Scott opposes it, citing his broth - er's struggles with sub- stance abuse. The ma r ijua na ca m- paign's chief financier is John Morgan, an Orlando trial lawyer and major Dem- ocratic donor whose firm em- ploys Crist. Morgan insists the effort is personal, not political; he says marijuana eased the suffering of his fa - ther, who died of esophageal cancer, and his brother, who is a quadriplegic. Democrats say the medi - cal pot measure could help counter Republican energy by motivating young and in- dependent voters. According to a national survey spon- sored by George Washing- ton University last month, nearly 40 percent of likely voters said they would be "much more likely" to vote if a legalization measure was on the ballot, with an - other 30 percent saying they would be "somewhat" more likely to vote. polItIcs Medical pot measure could boost Florida Democrats Brennan LinsLey — The associaTed Press different strains of marijuana are displayed for sale in this 2013 file photo at The clinic, a denver-based dispensary with several outlets.
