Hard to believe that New Hampshire residents smoke more pot than Californian.

As for the number 1 pot smoking state? Well, pot advocates claim that there is a lack of empirical evidence that pot smoking impairs driving. Maybe, but the number 1 state presents anecdotal evidence that pot smoking impairs voting.

California, while very liberal in some areas, is very conservative in others. California well off the coast might as well be Utah or, at the very liberalist, Colorado.

N.H., on the other hand, whatever their economic ideology, has is a libertarian hotbed socially.

Yeah, but the growing takes place everywhere. Shasta County which is the north end of the valley exceeded Humboldt County in seized marijuana last year. I guess they're willing to sell it even if they don't smoke it.

You know, I look at that map of proposed "Southern California" and even if they could get by all of the obvious obstacles, they have a problem with Imperial County. Imperial has been voting liberal lately, due to the increases in Hispanic voting. If Imperial doesn't want to go, what then?

do you not have states, other than cal, that have these 'medicinal cooperative' growing affairs...would this not impact upon the availability locally.

You might start finding mysterious dead Mexicans. It's right in the middle of the White Man's Last Stand.

I don't think the dispensaries themselves are impacting the availability of MJ. There's a glut of MJ on the market because reduced risk has led to more players, but now they can't move their stuff in state so they are taking chances trying to sell it in non-medical MJ states. If you have a California license plate and you're driving on I-80 from Illinois west, you're probably going to be pulled over.

Well, to impact voting in Imperial, that would be a whole lot of bodies.
