In a press release Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt announced a special election next year giving voters the opportunity to legalize recreational marijuana for everyone 21 and older.
Governor Stitt issued a proclamation setting the special election for March 7, 2023, at which point voters will decide the fate of State Question 820. The initiative failed to make it on the November ballot despite getting the required number of signatures signatures to do so after a delay in counting at the Secretary of State’s Office.
State Question 820 would allow those 21 and older to possess, consume, cultivate and purchase marijuana for all purposes. The possession limit would be set at one ounce of marijuana, eight grams of marijuana concentrates and eight grams of marijuana-infused products. The cultivation limit would be set at six mature plants and six seedlings.
