Despite polls consistently saying that Arizona voters favored a Medical Marijuana Law by a 3:1 ratio, it took over 12 days to count one of the (supposedly) closest votes ever in Arizona.

Finally, in the early evening of Saturday, November 13, the final vote count came in, and out of over 1.6 million votes, Proposition 203 passed by about 4,300 votes. It now joins 14 other states with medical marijuana laws.

I can't wait to see how Governor Jan Brewer will try to keep this from becoming law. Her biggest campaign fundraisers run the state's private, for-profit prisons, and depend on undocumented landscapers and drug offenders to keep them full and make them profitable. She was very vocal in her opposition to Prop 203.

Congratulations, Arizona!
