November 11, 2010 - Phoenix, AZ, USA



Phoenix, AZ: Proposition 203, a proposed statewide ballot measure to permit state-registered patients to obtain cannabis legally from licensed facilities, continues to trail by an estimated 3,000 votes as of Wednesday afternoon.

As of press time, state officials still say that the outcome remains too close to call.

Arizonans have twice before — in 1996 and again in 1998 — voted in favor of medical marijuana ballot measures, though neither proposal was ever enacted by the legislature. This year's proposal was sponsored by the Arizona Medical Marijuana Policy Project, an affiliate of the Marijuana Policy Project.

If passed, Arizona would become the fifteenth state since 1996 to authorize the use of medicinal cannabis to qualified patients, and the tenth to do so via voter initiative.
