Arizonans Approve Medical Marijuana
Arizona's latest medical marijuana initiative, which looked like a loser on election night, passed after all, thanks to a count of early and provisional ballots that was completed over the weekend. The Arizona Republic reports that "the secretary of state's unofficial results indicate that the 'yes' vote on the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act has won by a narrow margin of 4,341 votes, or 50.13 percent of more than 1.67 million votes counted." The vote makes Arizona the 15th state to allow medical use of cannabis.
