Kudos to Michigan Voters

The results are in. Michigan voters support Proposal 1—which would legalize the use of medical marijuana—by a margin of almost two-to-one.

63% of Michigan's voters say they supported the proposal, while 37% opposed.

Michigan will join 12 other states which have already legalized marijuana for medicinal purposes.

The proposal was supported by several organizations, including the Michigan Nurses Association. It was opposed by many health and law enforcement groups, such Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard.
