Harry J. Anslinger was one of the first vicious little thugs to dream up the ugly idea that marijuana was bad – of course for racist reason… “The primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races.” Making marijuana illegal was a hideous idea then, and maintaining its prohibited status is a obsolete notion now. A gloomy concept that smacks of fear, greed, and the wild-eyed quest for moral control. Tired of feeling dictated to by bigots from the grave – Americans are preparing to turnout in force for the 2014 marijuana vote around the country.

Warning: 2014′s Pot-related ballot initiatives are likely to increase voter turnout! At least according to polling data released by George Washington University.

Nearly four out of ten participants in the nationwide survey said that they would be “much more likely” to go to the polls if an initiative seeking to legalize marijuana appeared on the ballot. An additional 30 percent of respondents said that they would be “somewhat” more likely to participate in an election that also included a marijuana-specific ballot measure.

Presently, two statewide cannabis reform measures have qualified to appear on the 2014 ballot. Alaska voters will decide whether to allow for the commercial production, retail sale, and use of cannabis by those over age 21. The measure will appear on the August 19 primary ballot. According to the results of a February Public Policy Polling survey, 55 percent of registered Alaska voters “think (that) marijuana should be legally allowed for recreational use, that stores should be allowed to sell it, and that its sales should be taxed and regulated similarly to alcohol.”

Florida voters in November will decide on a measure to allow for the use and dispensing of marijuana by those who are authorized by their physician to engage in cannabis therapy. Survey data released in November by Quinnipiac University reported that 82 percent of Florida voters support reforming state law to allow for the medicinal use of marijuana.

Several proposed ballot measures to regulate the production and sale of marijuana for adults also are pending in Oregon. All of these measures are still in the signature-gathering phase.
