Arizona Legalizing Marijuana

As reported in High Times, pro-pot Petitioners in the state of Arizona have won in bringing cannabis to a vote in the November elections. Legalizing marijuana in Arizona requires at least 150,642 signatures for a ballot measure to appear on the ballot.

Supporters of the Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol group beat expectations, getting more than enough signatures. Prop. 205, or the “Arizona Regulation and Taxation of Marijuana Act,” would make cannabis use legal. But, only for adults aged 21 and over. It also would make retail cannabis stores legal, and allows adults to cultivate up to six plants.

Election Update: This measure did not pass.
