Cannabis may not survive
in the frigid Alaskan north, but the use of this herb remains sunny
in the Final Frontier. In fact, southern parts of the state provide
the right climate for cultivation.
Over half of Alaskan
voters voted in favor of Ballot Measure 8, which legalized of the
drug in 1998. Like Oregon, Alaska is racing to become the third state
to legalize
marijuana
for recreational use this November. So far, it's a neck-to-neck race,
but it will all come down to who can formalize the legalization
first.
