Swiss Reject Legal Drugs

Swiss voters rejected a proposed plan to make Switzerland the only country in the world where anyone 18 or older could buy their narcotic of choice, from marijuana to heroin, at state-run outlets. Voters trounced the measure 3 to 1. The defeat was expected but supporters, trying to eliminate a drug Mafia, had hoped for more support.
