A proposal to legalize marijuana in Arizona is on track to qualify for the ballot as the state joins a growing movement looking to loosen pot laws around the country in the November elections.
A spokesman for Arizona's leading recreational marijuana initiative said the measure has already collected about 140,000 of the 150,000 signatures necessary to get on the ballot, though the campaign intends to collect more than necessary to make up for signatures that get disqualified. The campaign has until July to collect the remaining signatures, making it highly likely that the measure will go before voters in November.
Arizona is one of at least nine states that have pending recreational marijuana initiatives this year, including California, Massachusetts, Maine and Nevada.
The Regulation and Taxation of Marijuana Act would allow people over the age of 21 to carry as much as one ounce of marijuana, grow up to six plants and carry up to five grams of "concentrated marijuana" such as hash oil or other cannabis extracts.
