River Falls Journal reports voters in favor of medical marijuana

As we now know, the Dane County Medical Marijuana Referendum passed by great margins.  The River Falls Journal reported on the passing of the other medical marijuana referendum in Wisconsin.

In the City of River Falls, an advisory referendum in support of allowing medical marijuana use passed by a margin of 2,722 (Yes) to 1,270 (No).

It was in September that the River Falls City Council, with some reservation, voted to allow an advisory referendum question to be printed on the local ballot during November ’s election. Voters were asked if the Wisconsin Legislature should enact legislation allowing residents with debilitating medical conditions to acquire and possess marijuana for medical purposes if supported by their physician.

Congratulations to River Falls and Dane County voters for passing their referendum.  No doubt it just helps to have the words medical marijuana on the ballot.
