LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - Arkansas voters will have the chance to vote for or against two medical marijuana amendments this election day.
The Arkansas Secretary of State's office certified the Arkansas Medical Marijuana Amendment Wednesday after supporters collected enough valid signatures.
It joins the Arkansas Medical Cannabis Act on the November ballot.
If both of these issues pass, the one that gets more votes takes effect.
Here are some of the differences between the two:
The Medical Marijuana Amendment would allow doctors to recommend marijuana for 15 qualifying conditions. The Medical Cannabis Act would allow for 56.
The Medical Marijuana Amendment would establish 40 for-profit dispensaries and eight grow centers that are regulated by a marijuana commission appointed by the governor and state legislature.
