California Pot Referendum: A Boost For Democrats?

California's Pot referendum, or "Prop 19" will be a ballot measure that is watched during the 2010 mid-term elections. If California legalizes marijuana for everyone to use - not just medical marijuana - then it could open up the possibility for Pot to be legalized throughout the country.

Even though you would think that Prop 19 would be pretty much a no-brain winning ballot measure, there's still a lot of controversy around it. With the Democrats and Republicans neck and neck in many of the crucial races of California, the Democrats could stand to gain a lot from this high profile ballot measure.

How? Of the people most excited about prop 19, many of them are under the age of 30. Traditionally, people under 30 will vote democrat.

The California Pot referendum, aka Prop 19, will be something to watch this election day. Maybe, just maybe, it will also help the democrats eeek by their GOP opponents.
