Sidney Herald Leader, 26 Sep 2010 – According to the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services, in December 2008 there were 1,577 patient card holders for medical marijuana. A year later in December 2009, 7,339. By June there were 19,635, and as of Sept. 1, there were 23,187 card holders.
