The Latest on votes in parts of Alaska to ban legalized marijuana operations (all times local):10:05 p.m. Voters in some parts of Alaska rejected attempts Tuesday to ban marijuana businesses. Alaska voters in 2014 approved the recreational use of marijuana, but local governments could always opt out. The 2014 statewide initiative that legalized marijuana allows local governments to ban pot businesses within their borders. If the bans are successful, they could force retail stores and cultivation facilities to close.
