Marijuana legalization in Colorado moves a step closer to the ballot with a state elections title board reviewing some proposed ballot questions on pot.
Advocates are bringing eight possible ballot measures to the Colorado title board Wednesday. It’s a final step before advocates can start seeking signatures to petition something onto ballots.
Marijuana legalization supporters say they’ll wait a week for legal challenges and then pick a measure to start promoting for ballots next year. The groups appear likely to ask voters whether marijuana should be permitted for adults over 21, even if they don’t have a medical condition that qualifies them for pot currently.
A ballot proposal on pot legalization failed badly in Colorado in 2006. Colorado voters in 2000 approved medical uses of marijuana.
