MA Rejects Psychedelics

Masachusetts voters have decisively turned down Question 4, which would have made the state the third to establish regulated psychedelic services and decriminalize certain psychedelics including DMT, mescaline, ibogaine, and psilocybin. With over 50% of votes counted, the measure is failing by a significant margin (57.4% voting No).
