Another "small government conservative" all for wasting tens of billions of dollars a year on court appointed lawyers, judges time, jail space, healthcare for inmates, etc. all for a plant that has literally never killed anyone.

It's less a rejection of legalization than it is a rejection of the structure set up in the current proposition. The proposition would have created a shared monopoly of 10 growers. There were some other issues I don't recall offhand, but it was a controversial measure not just because it's pot. I have friends in OH who were undecided on this or even leaning no who are actually in favor of legalization.

this country is more conservative than ever. Most issues were simply swept under the rug. It's because of this conservatism that this country is going to shite.

Like another poster alluded to earlier, the potheads probably forgot it was election day, or they couldn't motivate themselves to put down the Cheetohs and get off the couch.

I hope you're not in favor of gun control. After all, it's just a piece of metal.

It was voted against because part of the law gave growing rights to just a few specific farms/companies. Corrupt bs.

Don't worry, though. A decent bill will come around and do it the right way.

From my understanding they had a seperate bill that was voted for that opens the door for more medical use of weed

Didn't the poles get extended to 9pm in some places due to technical issues? I don't think it's over yet.

So disappointed in you.

Don't ever call yourself a conservative ever again.
