Michiganders Approve Medical Marijuana Access

On November 4, 63% of Michigan voters approved the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act, removing criminal penalties for the medical use of marijuana. The majority of voters in each of Michigan’s 83 counties approved the act. This statewide victory for patients followed on the heels of five citywide medical marijuana votes. Medical marijuana won in a landslide (with 62% in Flint in February 2007; with 63% in Traverse City and 61% in Ferndale in November 2005; with 74% in Ann Arbor in November 2004; and with 60% in Detroit in August 2004).
