Friendly reminder that literally all legalization legislation and referendums have come through the Democratic party.

Red states are poised to increasingly embrace weed. Ohio is the latest, becoming the 24th state to legalize marijuana for recreational use via a voter referendum. This follows successful efforts in the past two years in Montana and Missouri. Fourteen states have legalized marijuana for medical use only.

Yep, you can thank blue states and democratic activists for paving the way years ahead of anyone.

... Eventually reds trail behind.

Edit: Also I'm willing to bet those referendums in those red states were petitioned largely by left-wing Democratic-caucus members.
