There are multiple statewide issues that voters will be asked to decide in the Nov. 7 election. While much of the attention is focused on Issue 1, which will deal with abortion rights in Ohio, there is another key matter on the ballot.

So what do voters need to know about Issue 2? What changes would it make? How soon would those changes take effect?

Ohioans will decide the question of whether recreational marijuana will be legalized.

The measure, spearheaded by the Coalition to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol, would allow adults 21 and over to buy and possess up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis flower and 15 grams of extract.

If the issue passes, Ohio would become the 24th state to legalize cannabis for adult use.
