The lucrative legal cannabis industry is still in the forefront of the polls for the month of November 6. Ballots across the US will include numerous cannabis-related measures – many at the county and municipal level – regarding laws for commercial cultivation in certain areas and how to spend abundant new cannabis taxes. In Colorado alone, legal cannabis income for 2018 crested a record $ 1 billion by August. The state is forecasting to gross over $ 1.5 billion from $ 250 million in government coffers.
Several U.S. states will also vote on both adult and medical cannabis legalization. North Dakota and Michigan will decide on ballot initiatives for medical marijuana 21 and over, and Utah and Missouri will cast ballots on medical marijuana legalization. There are also 35 U.S. Senate seats up for grabs and 36 races for governor. And you can bet that those candidates are more likely to vote – particularly the youth vote – like cannabis. Having already reached a point of popularity in the US – with 62 percent of Americans They agree that marijuana should be legalized. Political contenders in many states are following the green BDS Analytics sales worldwide spending on the legal pot at about $ 57 billion by 2027.
In the highly contentious race for Florida's governorship, candidates Andrew Gillum and Ron DeSantis are battling it out with clashing and irreconcilable political views – including opinions on healthcare, climate change, and gun control – yet regarding the controversial topic of marijuana legalization they are both supportive . "Legalize it. Tax it, " Tweeted Gillum earlier this year. "Use the income to fix Florida's public schools and move us to 29th in the nation to # 1." DeSantis was a bit more cautious but still pro-weed WPLG 10News, "I am going to implement the will of the voters. They passed medical marijuana overwhelmingly, and my view is in Florida when that happens, then we should not play games with it. We should just simply implement it. "Whoever becomes Florida's next governor will have a lot of say over the state's evolving – and highly profitable – medical marijuana system, and over any potential recreational legalization efforts going forward.
There's no better evidence of marijuana's widespread popularity than Canada's decision to make cannabis legal for this year. As cannabis retailers there contend with high demand and inventory shortfalls since we have had a good time, we have made it clear that we have this substance available. Buyers in the U.S. are signaling the same, as 31 states have legalized it for medical purposes and nine states and the District of Columbia have legalized the drug for recreational adult use. The message to candidates in many regions is clear: go against the rising tide of cannabis legalization at your own peril.

In California, where is the state of the art of cannabis sales kicked off in January, Marijuana Business Daily reports that many jurisdictions are still grappling with ironing out local marijuana laws. Some 82 cannabis-related ballot measures are slated to go before voters and counties around the Golden State. These measures will include regulations for cannabis entrepreneurs to operate within their borders. Par exemple, in Bakersfield, Measure J seeks to "retain the role of a commercial cannabis user" and "allow and regulate commercial medicinal cannabis cultivation, manufacturing, testing, retailing, distribution and micro-business in the unincorporated area."
In conservative-leaning Montana – a state that's had contentious history the past few years with legal medical marijuana – U.S. Senate candidate Jon Tester, who is currently ahead in the polls, said during a House Committee on Foreign Affairs meeting this year, "Veterans must have a say in how they manage their bread and the veterans who are finding relief in medicinal cannabis."
While midterm elections are still in progress, the ballot measures can have a significant impact on the outcome of the vote. Cannabis looks to be one of the key motivators this year.
