yes it does

<><><>

The most restrictive law is the enforced law, unless a higher law forbids lower laws from being enacted. Example- Federal law says all socks will be red, white, or blue. STATE law says all socks will be red or blue. City law says all socks will be blue. Blue socks it is. City law says socks may be Red, white or Blue. State Law says red or white. Federal law says red. Red sox it is. City law says green socks- in conflict with Federal law, Federal law applies- red, white or blue socks. Federal law says no other body may pass laws on socks- city law overruled. Red, white or blue socks.

Can a governor override the people's vote for president?

No- the president has virtually no power over a governor's decisions unless they violate federal law.

The president can sometimes put pressure on a governor by holding up federal funds to his state.

Marijuana is illegal under federal law everywhere in the US.

It depends on the specific legal framework in place.
