Ballot initiatives preview: Pot, minimum wage and gun laws

While the presidential race and control of Congress are grabbing most of the headlines ahead of Election Day, voters across the country will be asked to make or repeal state laws at the polls as well.

Thirty-four states will ask their residents to vote on 154 ballot initiatives on Tuesday, including measures on whether to make marijuana legal for medical use in four states and for personal use in five. Referendums on gun control, increasing the minimum wage and increasing tobacco taxes are also up for a vote in multiple states.
