Voters in four states approved
ballot measures to legalize
marijuana on Election Day.
16 million residents
of Arizona, Montana,
New Jersey and South Dakota .
now join the 93 million
Americans who already
lived in states where
cannabis had been legalized.
Several other states were expected to
pass similar measures, but campaigns
failed due to issues created by the pandemic.
Advocates say that the move toward
legalization in both red and blue states demands
uniform action from the federal government.
