Nevada Polls: Legalize Marijuana? We're winning the poll! [View All]

From an MPP email:

The Marijuana Policy Project's initiative to tax and regulate marijuana in Nevada is ahead in the polls — 49% to 43% (with 8% undecided). Because the poll used the actual language that will be on the ballot, it's considered the most accurate poll to date. That means that if the election were held today, we would very likely win.

If that trend holds on Election Day — just 44 days away — and Nevada becomes the first state to permit the legal cultivation, distribution, and sale of marijuana to adults aged 21 and older, it would be the biggest victory in the history of the marijuana policy reform movement.

Can Nevadans - and voting rights activists - fill me in on the status of voting in Nevada? Do they use Diebold? Will the vote count?

I feel that this is actually the race to watch this election cycle - it would be historic if Nevadans do the right thing and legalize and regulate this beneficial plant. Do we stand a chance of seeing a victory for human rights and civil liberties this November?
