Ohio voters reject bill that would have legalized recreational marijuana use

Ohio voters on Tuesday said "no" to a bill that would legalize recreational marijuana, local media projections indicated.


Critics of the measure had said that it would create a monopoly for the biggest investors in producing the drug. If the measure had passed, Ohio would have been the most populous state to legalize recreational marijuana.
