Just a day before the US presidential election, marijuana users are getting more anxious if the legalization of marijuana will come to fruition. Both recreational and medical marijuana will be included on the ballot in nine states that are voting on November 8.

Although the election might be controversial because of emails and sexual harassment, both presidential hopefuls, Hillary Clinton (Democratic) and Donald Trump (Republican) somewhat have something in common. That is, to legalize marijuana. Both presidentiables agreed on providing support for medical marijuana and urge the federal government to permit more states to vote on marijuana legalization. Currently, recreational marijuana is permitted in four states along with 24 states that have differing forms of book laws on medical marijuana.

According to Business Insider, Trump might have supported the right of the state to select how to legalize medical marijuana but didn't expressly called for legalization. He agrees 100% on medical marijuana but called Colorado's legal marijuana industry a real dilemma. Besides, he has not taken any decisive stance regarding the issue.

Hilary Clinton, on the other hand, requested marijuana to be removed from the list of Schedule 1 substances. She said that she will give her support to the states that move towards the legalization of marijuana both for recreational and medical. Additionally, she moves for plans that will generate job increase by giving tax credits for long-term investments and new workers.

On November 8 presidential election, five states including Arizona, California, Maine, Massachusetts, and Nevada will all vote for the legalization of recreational marijuana. Arkansas, Florida, Montana, and North Dakota are the four states that will vote for the medical marijuana or its amendment, Motley Fool reported.

The US presidential election is considered to be historical for marijuana since there will be more states voting for the weed's legalization. Another thing is there will be some significant changes after the election. Lastly, is the belief that marijuana industry will succeed in the US since California possesses the eight-largest GDP in the world.

On the day of election, pot users will flock polling stations to cast their votes on the legalization of both recreational and medical marijuana with high hopes that their request will be granted.
