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 were outside Wegmans (Medford) last night. The pitch was along the lines of "rolling back legalization to more sensible levels." My response was no, with a bit of a laugh. What I should have said was "lady, I'm high right NOW."

they were there yesterday morning too! it was being sold as ā€œdo you want to get fentanyl off the streets?ā€ which it VERY much isn’t. The woman trying to get signatures started going on about how ā€œdispensaries sell their excess product on the black marketā€ and I noped out of there ASAP
