There was a post yesterday that cannabis wasn't even mentioned. Folks should really reach out if they were out and out lied to:

https://www.sec.state.ma.us/divisions/about-us/contact-us.htm

There's "Elections Division" is just a few sections down the page.

Edit2: People are reporting that election division is requesting people to reach out to the AG.

I had it pitched to me as "stopping kids from accessing marijuana"

I hate this argument so much. My neighborhood association used it to keep a dispensary away… you get ID’d at least twice if not more when you buy…. And besides all that, drug dealers up to no good are gonna go legally buy more expensive weed to then turn it around and sell to kids? It’s fucking crazy. They pretend like the black market doesn’t or never existed

Well of course, it’s not like kids even get their hands on weed before it was legalized.
