Initiative to legalize marijuana qualifies for November ballot | L.A. NOW | Los Angeles Times

Quote:

State election officials announced Wednesday that an initiative to legalize marijuana will be on the November ballot, triggering what will likely be an expensive, divisive and much-watched campaign to decide whether California will again lead the nation in softening drug laws.

Los Angeles County election officials Wednesday turned in their official estimate of the number of valid signatures, putting the statewide figure above the 433,971 needed for the measure to make the ballot. The county, where one-fifth of the signatures were collected, was the last to report its count, filing just before 5 p.m.

I just hope the law enforcement doesn't pull some bs and waste tax payer money showing their opposition to it.

If this passes, Cali will look like a refugee haven for heads. Go west young pot head.

^at what point in history was this not true?

Prophet Saddam · 03-27-2010, 06:01 PM

I'm smoking like it's legal.

I hope this thing passes.

It has my vote, and I'm in the majority, but will enough people like me vote?

Old conservatives always vote.

The younger, below 50 crowd often is too apathetic, or too busy working to take the time.

If cali does it, and they should, it would be a total game changer. Until then, the east coast needs more medi!

Thanks for sharing.
