If Escalon had been the determining factor in whether or not marijuana was legalized in the November election, Prop 64 would have failed. That, according to Escalon Police Chief Mike Borges, who said the results released regarding voters that cast ballots in the city show that 46 percent were in favor of legalizing marijuana, 54 percent were opposed. Members of the Escalon City Council heard that news on Thursday night and also extended a ban on marijuana for another 45 days, essentially giving themselves a buffer in order to determine how best to proceed.
