Nebraska: A pending court challenge and separate ongoing investigations won’t stop Nebraska’s attorney general from certifying successful medical marijuana legalization votes.

“I see no reason sitting here today to not certify,” Attorney General Mike Hilgers said Tuesday, according to the Nebraska Examiner. “We know the judge will look at all the arguments and the facts carefully, and so we’ll wait for a ruling.”
