11/3/20 – South Dakota voters approved separate initiatives to legalize marijuana and medical cannabis.

Thanks to the hard work of advocates who gathered over 83,000 signatures in just two months last fall, South Dakota will become the first state to ever vote on medical marijuana and adult-use legalization at the same time. South Dakotans for Better Marijuana Laws is championing the initiative to tax and regulate marijuana similarly to alcohol and working alongside New Approach South Dakota, which is supporting the medical marijuana measure. Both campaigns expect strong opposition from powerful politicians in the state, but polling suggests each proposal enjoys majority support among South Dakota voters.
