Brian according to this aricle (and others):

The medical marijuana bill PASSED in AZ. I guess I was confused to see it because I already saw other media articles stating it lost by the amount you also said it did. This is unheard of.. the media giving us incorrect information!
Haha, yeah! It was losing by a lot, and then it got down to the decimal points, and finally it took ahead. I watched it go from -1,000 votes to +6,000 votes with the simple hit of the ‘refresh’ button last night. It was an amazing feeling.
Hmm.. If small growers and medical marjuana dispensers were worried about losing their quasi-monopoly and customers, then why wouldn’t it make sense for some large companies to bankroll the legalisation campaign(admittedly, they’d have to sidestep the potential PR problem this could raise. I have no doubts “liberals” would reverse their drug stance immediately if they figured businesses could make money from legalisation).
^the expected profit of large marijuana companies is zero
