Voters in Florida, South Dakota and North Dakota either rejected or appeared poised to reject state ballot initiatives to legalize marijuana early Wednesday, while Nebraska voters approved a ballot initiative that would legalize the use of up to five ounces of marijuana for medical purposes for qualified patients.
Those health initiatives were among the 146 statewide ballot initiatives on various topics nationwide. While nearly a dozen of those initiatives focused on abortion access, other health-related ballot issues focused on Medicaid, psychedelic drugs and long-term care.
