Only 23 states currently allow citizens to circulate petitions to get marijuana legalization on the ballot. Of those twenty-three states, only six Western states – Alaska, California, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington – have ever managed to succeed at placing legalization before the state’s voters. These six states account for just ten successes out of a potential 494 opportunities to place legalization on a statewide ballot.
