Marijuana wins big on election night – Cannabis News

Voters in California and Massachusetts approved recreational marijuana initiatives Tuesday night, and several other states passed medical marijuana provisions in what is turning out to be the biggest electoral victory for marijuana reform since 2012, when Colorado and Washington first approved the drug's recreational use.

Of the five recreational marijuana initiatives on the ballot, two passed and two more -- in Nevada and Maine -- were at midnight in preliminary vote totals.

A similar measure in Arizona was trailing with 53 percent of votes counted.
