Hallelujah!

Arizona voters have approved Proposition 203, which legalizes marijuana for medical use.

The secretary of state's unofficial results indicate that the "yes" vote on the Arizona Medical Marijuana Act has won by a narrow margin of 4,341 votes, or 50.13 percent of more than 1.67 million votes counted.

This after Maricopa County officials finished counting about 11,000 outstanding ballots Saturday.

The "yes" and "no" votes remained neck and neck for more than a week since Election Night, with the "yes" vote trailing by at least 3,000 each day. But the "yes" vote picked up traction after elections officials started counting provisional ballots, and by Friday, it was leading by 4,421 for the first time.

Arizona will be the 15th state to legalize medical marijuana.

Such hypocricy!

Superceding federal law in immigration enforcement matters is inappropriate, but doing the same thing in narcotics enforcement matters is?

Apples to oranges. Immigration laws are and always will be under federal jurisdiction, whereas states have some leeway in regulating certain kinds of commerce within their state.
