POT PREVAILS ONCE AGAIN IN HAILEY

New election, same results. Three of four marijuana reform initiatives
were approved by Hailey's electorate Tuesday.

Voters approved initiatives to legalize medical use of marijuana by a
margin of 417-296, to legalize industrial use of hemp by 403-308 and
to make enforcement of marijuana laws the lowest police priority in
the city by a margin of 381-331.

Turned down once again was an initiative to require the city to
regulate and tax distribution of the drug. It failed 386-323.
