Arizona may be getting closer to the idea of legal marijuana in the state.

A group that is backing the legalization of marijuana for recreational use is one step closer to letting voters decide.

Smart and Safe Arizona filed its petition on July 1 to get the initiative on the November ballot and now has more than 400,000 signatures on its petition.

“We’ve dropped off our petitions to legalize adult-use marijuana here in the state of Arizona,” said Chad Campbell.

“As the name says, smart and safe. It’s put together in a responsible way to sell this product to adults only and it will generate revenue, much needed revenue, for the state which is a win for everybody,” Campbell said.

The group turned in all of the signatures to the secretary of state’s office who will sort and count them. Once approved, they could be on the ballot this November for voters to decide.

“420,000 signatures, we only needed 238,000 so we are pretty confident there,” Campbell said.
