D.C. residents voted Tuesday to legalize possession of two ounces of marijuana and allow for the cultivation of six plants at home for people over the age of 21. Poll results showed an overwhelming 69% voted in favor. The initiative does not create a legal market for marijuana, but it is assumed local officials will establish pot shops. Although, the city's unique status as a federal district means that Congress will have 30 days to overturn it and lawmakers do have a history of overriding local will in Washington, D.C. Representative Andy Harris, Republican of Maryland, has also made clear his intention to push Congress to do so. - Anastasia Stepanova picutred
