> A democratic state is elected by the majority, as such, the state should share the same definition as the majority.

This is trivially falsifiable. Weed is still a federal felony, despite 60% support for recreational & medical use, and another 31% support for medical alone[0]. In fact opposition for legalization is now a trivial 8% of the population, which is basically nobody. There isn't even a party with majority support for keeping weed illegal anymore.

If democratically elected states were guaranteed to eventually share the same definition as the majority, weed would have been legalized years ago for medical use. And yet, here we are.
