6 American States That May Never Legalize Marijuana

4). Idaho

Though it’s bordered by two states with legal pot in Oregon and Washington, Idaho is still firmly against legalization, by and large. Conservative culture and values play a large part in that, and a 2015 poll proves it. Only 31% of Idaho voters said that they would support legalization last year. The Marijuana Policy Project says there is little hope for change in the near future, as well.

5). Kansas

Kansas is a very conservative state, and as such, a lot of people aren’t taking kindly to the idea of legal marijuana within its borders. Polls from recent years have shown that a healthy portion of the state’s voters oppose legalization, and want fairly heavy punishments for possession. But that sentiment may not last — even newer polls show that people are coming around to the idea. In 2015, 63% of Kansas residents said they would support decriminalization.

6). Tennessee

A Vanderbilt University poll from a couple of years ago shows that only one-third of Tennessee supports legalization. That’s among the lowest in the nation, and though it’s unclear how much those numbers have changed over the past two years, support is likely still quite low. For that reason, legalization seems like a pipe dream — at least at this point.
