Marijuana product sales jumped nearly 6% on Election Day compared to the previous three Tuesdays, according to Seattle-based cannabis industry analytics provider Headset.
Nearly every product category experienced an increase in sales in the 15 regulated U.S. marijuana markets tracked by Headset.
THC-infused beverages were the product of choice for many cannabis consumers on Election Day; sales in that category jumped 14.2% on Tuesday, the biggest increase in any segment.
Beverages typically account for 1% or 2% of retail sales, although infused beverage sales spike during the holidays, when social gatherings increase, according to Headset Data Analyst Mitchell Laferla.
“In 2024, the Beverage category saw the largest spike in total sales across all categories on 4/20, 4th of July, and Labor Day,” Laferla told MJBizDaily via email.
“This trend held true on Election Day 2024 where Beverages (+14.2%) saw the largest lift in sales over second place Edible (+8.3%) compared to a typical Tuesday.
“Despite their status as a smaller category, Beverages have shown their appeal in social settings.”
