I posted a link further down in the thread about the majority of Texas supporting recreational and medical cannabis use, quoting from the study

"Respondents whose age fell between 30 and 65 were most likely to be in support of the measures, with the 18-29 age group being the most unsure. Those 65 and older showed the least support but were still a part of the majority approval"

But the over-65 demographic is far more likely to vote, and with now-aging Boomers, there are far more of them.
