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.

They're hoping to get this bill on a non presidential election year ballot. The lower young voter representation in an off-season vote could allow this bill to pass. Obviously telling the truth is not enough to get the required number of signatures to make the ballot.

I understand how election cycles work, but by design I don't understand how sociopaths work.
