Nevada's big gamble whether to legalize pot
Plan would allow possession of 3 ounces
Nevada, with a century-old tradition of minting money by sanctioning vice, now aims to be the first state in the country to legalize marijuana for recreational use. On election day, Silver State voters will decide on Question 9, which would amend the state constitution to allow possession of up to 3 ounces of marijuana by anyone over 21. The so-called "reeferendum" also must win a second general election two years from now to take effect on Jan. 1, 2005.
