I feel like Arizona's going to pass this by a lot more than Maine or Massachusetts do. The latter two are fairly socially conservative by New England standards.
I also read an article a few days ago on a pro-marijuana website that's urging a no vote in California, criticizing it for monopolizing the weed industry in a similar way that the Ohio initiative would have. I haven't read much about the initiative there, but it sounds like big business is trying to get its hands dirty on this again. The problem with a lot of these initiatives is that they leave the state legislatures with almost no leeway to make sensible changes to them.
It's pretty ridiculous that the only way to legalize pot through referenda is to embed it in state constitutions. It sounds like Colorado is the only state that's handling this issue the right way.
Yeah, the Church is going all out to oppose this in MA.
