With just a week to go, many will say the national election is buttoned up.

That's not really "legalizing" as much as making it a misdemeanor, right?
We have two issues here that are getting a lot of air time.
Exactly - decriminalizing it...
I think this is a decent middle ground - keeps a lid on dealers, but doesn't wreck the life of a casual user or tie up the courts.
Heads up!! In CA we have legal medical marijuana and the feds have been known to arrent people who are perfectly within the state laws on this issue because it isn't legal at the federal level.
You might find the DEA is unwilling to let you decriminalize entirely.
And sometimes the feds "force" local law enforcement assist with raids and enforcement of these laws, even though the individuals are not breaking laws within the state.
Fortunately, I don't partake, so I really won't be affected personally.
Yep, it's weird.
