Washington – Initiative 502
PASSED: 55.3% – 44.7% ✓
Washington state voted to approve Initiative 502, which legalizes marijuana for adults, regulates the production and processing of marijuana, and generates millions of dollars in tax revenue for the state each year.
The legislature had failed to pass the measure before its session expired in April, so it was referred to the November 2012 general election ballot for voters to decide. [NewApproachWA.org]
