What Happened with Cannabis in the Election?

Originally aired: November 13th at 11am CST

Last November, Gallup released the results of a poll that found that 70% of Americans support cannabis legalization. But what will this November mean for cannabis legalization?

On November 13th, we hosted economist, business analyst, and general cannabis policy wonk Andrew Livingston of the cannabis law firm Vicente LLP for a look back at the cannabis initiatives on the ballot this Election Day, what voters decided, and where we go from here.

About this Webinar

From Florida to Nebraska and the Dakotas, voters will have the opportunity to have their say in a series of ballot initiatives on election day.

In Florida, Amendment 3 has the potential to legalize recreational cannabis in the country’s third-most populous state, while in Nebraska, voters will have the opportunity to make the state the latest to legalize medical cannabis.
