According to Partido de la Revolución Democrática (PRD) spokesperson Gabriela Estrada, 247 people voted in the marijuana poll in Chapala, where an electronic urn was installed outside city hall.
To question one, whether marijuana should be permitted for medicinal use, 193 voted yes and 54 no. To question two, whether the legal possession amount for recreational use should be raised, 141 voted no and 106 yes.
Commented Chapala Mayor Joaquin Huerta: “Marijuana combined in alcohol with arnica and salt is known as an effective old-fashioned home remedy to treat bruises and muscular inflammation. I respect persons who choose to use marijuana, but I’m opposed to legalization for recreational purposes.”
