Good on them.
Unfortunately the godless communists will keep bringing up for a vote until it passes.

Smart move, legal dope has messed up Colorado. Just legalized this year in New Mexico, and there seems to be a weed dispensary on every corner in Albuquerque.

Well, finally one state has some sanity when it comes to this issue.

It is a credit to those who ran the “no” campaign, I would assume, educating the voters on what has happened in other states that have done this?

Crony Capitalists who buy politicians want legalized pot and politicians looking for new revenue sources.

In NY pot legalization comes with a nine percent tax for the state and four percent for local govrnments.

I’m in Florida. Every since that Morgan and Morgan idiot pushed the cannabis crap in Florida, I’m having major problems with tenants on my rentals. Thank you John — idiots.

Now, round up the influential people who pushed for legalization of marijuana and try them for a treasonous attempt to destroy society and hang them.

I voted Yes and would probably do it again due to the goofball reefer madness campaign against. Other than that I don’t really care as our medical weed system works great has lower tax and higher permissible quantities. Just the tax saving alone is worth it for me.
