Marijuana is a big winner this election day. Associated Press projects Proposition 64, the California Marijuana Legalization Initiative, will be approved. That makes California the largest state (12 percent of the U.S. population) to legalize recreational use of marijuana. This may put pressure on the federal government to reclassify marijuana in order to allow banks to do business with cannabis growers, according to Forbes Magazine.
Voters in Arizona, Maine, Massachusetts and Nevada are also voting on legalizing marijuana for recreational use.
And Florida voters overwhelmingly (71-29 percent) voted yes on a state constitutional amendment approving the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes. Two years ago, a similar vote fell just short of approval.
Montana and North Dakota have similar medical marijuana proposals on the ballot.
Trump wins Georgia (16 electoral votes).
