With the Election of 2016 coming to a close, Californians are taking to Twitter to express their thoughts about the passing of Prop 64, the legalization of recreational marijuana use for adults. There have been many hashtags surrounding the topic of the legalization of marijuana, but the most important one to track the feelings of California residents right now is #Prop64.
Many Californians are elated with the new law, and feel as though the positives outweigh the negatives.
California #Prop60 currently losing by 10 points. #Prop64 passes, legalizing cannabis.

I'd rather pay a bit more in taxes than to be considered a criminal for smoking some pot. #legalization #prop64

I don't use marijuana.. I prefer not to.. but it still doesn't make me blind to the positive uses and effects of it. #Prop64

While many Californians are rejoicing over the new legalization, plenty of people oppose the positive view and think that this might not have been such a good idea.
