Will California legalize pot in November?
They might, though it would only be a symbolic victory. Even if they legalized it for the entire state, their law would not change federal law that says it is illegal.
However, it is possible that the state really doesn't want that. Sure, the medical marijuana thing helped the economy, but it also became a cover for recreational use, and criminal activity moved into the medical marijuana business. Recently, a grower was tortured and dismembered by several men, all because they thought he had a lot of money he did not really have. Or take the speed that the dispensaries popped up. Just one city had 2000-3000 shortly after it started. Now, you don't see 3000 pharmacies being in any city, so that must tell you something about the usage. So if they legalize it, they would need something like a "medallion system" similar to how many cities regulate taxicabs or nursing home care.

How is motivation affected by drug abuse?
It is not a completely simple answer.
Drug abuse effects the chemical balances in the body. When we do drugs, the drug takes the place of a signal naturally created by the body.
Our bodies produce the chemical dopamine naturally at a pretty small level.
When we us drugs, the DRUG tells the body to pump up dopamine production.
This is the "feel good" or "reward" chemical in the brain.
So when "use" turns into "abuse" the body completely IGNORES the natural signals for production of dopamine and many other chemicals.
Motivation is connected to dopamine, as the body rewards you getting off you butt and doing something with pride in a job well done.
That "job well done" chemical reward is not being produced without drugs. AND the amount of the reward naturally is much SMALLER than the drug induced reward.
Therefore your body CAN NOT "reward" motivation.
Withdraw from drugs is the period while your body "RESETS" it's systems to start making the chemicals according to it's own signals.
As mentioned, many more chemicals than dopamine are taken over by different drugs. Opiates retards the bodys ability to produce melatonin and induce sleep.
This is why when there is no opiates, you cant sleep. You have to wait until the body starts making the proper levels of melatonin and serotonin on its own. This withdraw period is the body and brain producing the wrong levels, if any at all, of the chemicals that keep us human.
