Marijuana legalization is an issue gaining traction and popularity in the United States, a fact highlighted by the increase in ballot measures nationwide to legalize the drug for either recreational or medicinal use. In 2016 alone, 5 states could legalize marijuana completely for adults 21 or older while 3 or 4 more states will consider legalizing medical marijuana.

SAN DIEGO, CALIF. - Advocates for Measures K&L announced the launch of their campaign Friday to win voter approval. Supporters say both Charter amendments, which will appear on the city ballot in November, ensure that the most important voter decisions are made when the most people vote -- the November general election.

On Monday, September 26, 2016, the first of three presidential debates will take place. For some voters, this will be an occasion to resolve any doubts they have about the candidates. For others, this may be their first and only opportunity to hear the presidential candidate’s respective plans for the future of the United States.

Unfortunately, it appears that only two candidates will be on stage: Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

It goes without saying that the Republican Party’s nomination of Donald Trump, a high-profile businessman with no experience holding elected office, for the presidency has been the most discussed development in American politics this year. News coverage of Mr. Trump’s primary victory eclipsed even that of the first major-party presidential nomination of a woman, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
