New Jersey voters will soon decide whether to legalize marijuana
Adult-use recreational marijuana could become legal in New Jersey if voters approve a public question on this year’s ballot.
Public Question No. 1 would legalize recreational marijuana use for adults 21 years old and older.
Legalizing marijuana was a campaign promise of Gov. Phil Murphy, but the bill fell short in Trenton several times.
Over 1 million of New Jersey’s registered voters have already cast their ballots and weighed in on the question. But New Jersey will have to wait until all the ballots are counted to see if it passes.
