A California Marijuana Legalization Initiative (09-0024), an initiated state statute (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Initiated_state_statute), is likely to be on the November 2, 2010 ballot (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_2010_ballot_propositions) in California (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California). Supporters turned in over 700,000 qualifying signatures (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Valid_signature) to election authorities on January 28, 2010 (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/BC2010#January), versus a requirement of 433,971 signatures.[1] (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_Marijuana_Legalization_Initiative_%2820 10%29#cite_note-0)

The Field Poll (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Field_Poll) released survey results in April 2009 which indicate that 56% of Californians support legalizing marijuana.[22] (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_Marijuana_Legalization_Initiative_%2820 10%29#cite_note-21)[23] (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/California_Marijuana_Legalization_Initiative_%2820 10%29#cite_note-22)

medical marijuana is a timely idea...

Stop this war against drug BS because it is a proven EPIC failure.
Legalize it and let's get over with it.
Pedophiles and rapists were released from jails because they had to let them go in order to create the room for marijuana smokers.
What a disgusting nonsense this is.

New poll shows 50% In favor, and 40% opposed.

I have a good feeling this will pass. But, since this is a Republican year, the large Republican turnout could effect the ballot outcome. The state races are "battleground" status because they are all pretty close, and California is quite politicized so the Republican turnout may just be cancelled out by Dems and stoners. We'll see

I am worried that all the churches that came out against prop 8 will come out against this.

I hope I am wrong.
