Nevada…Free the weed?

Nevada to Vote on Legalizing Marijuana

RENO, Nev. (AP) – Gambling, prostitution, and now pot? Organizers of a Nevada ballot measure hope voters in a state where almost everything goes will go one better and legalize marijuana.

If it passes Nov. 7, Nevada will be the first state to allow adults to possess up to an ounce of pot that they could buy at government-regulated marijuana shops.

The Committee to Regulate and Control Marijuana, which has pushed medical marijuana and decriminalization laws around the country, thinks Nevada – with its embrace of certain vices and its streak of Western independence – is a perfect venue.</i>
