Marijuana Ballot Measures Pass In 2 States, Fail In 3

Voting on weed comes one month after President Joe Biden took steps to pardon federal marijuana offenses and called on states to decriminalize weed.

Voters in five states were asked at the ballot box Tuesday about legalizing recreational marijuana, with mixed results.  

"I think it shows that marijuana legalization is far from a foregone conclusion and that it's an issue that deeply divides Americans. It is not something that everyone is on board with," said Kevin Sabet, the president of Smart Approaches To Marijuana. 

In Maryland and Missouri, voters supported legalizing and regulating recreational marijuana sales. Those states will also expunge criminal records for non-violent pot related charges.
