A News 10 poll shows things can change in a week when it comes to which way people will vote on Proposal Two, which would allow embryonic stem cell research.

Last week, 11 percent of voters were still undecided on Prop Two-- that number now stands at 10. That one percent of undecideds now say they would vote "no" on Prop Two if the election were held today.
That brings the total number of those against it to 44 percent, with 46 percent in favor.

The other proposal on the ballot-- medical marijuana use-- is gaining more support since last week. Fifty-seven percent are in favor of allowing people with medical conditions, like cancer and glaucoma, to grow and use marijuana. That's up three percent from last week. Thirty-six percent of voters are against Prop One-- down two percent since the last poll. Seven percent are still undecided.
