The legalization of medicinal marijuana has been a hotly contested subject. A survey conducted in April 2015 was undertaken to investigate whether a relationship exists between feelings on the legalization of medicinal marijuana (for/against)andpoliticalparty(republican/democrat/independent). During this study, a total of 500 individuals were surveyed. For each American adult, what variables were recorded?arethesevariablescategoricalorquantitative?
