The Dems know this is political suicide, right? For the same reason the GOP never makes a concerted attempt to overturn Roe V. Wade even with a 6-3 majority.
VA has a ton of "on the fence" libertarian stoners, sort of like Michigan... i'd expect VA to go back from the deep blue column to the sky blue/gray in '24
governor blackface coming through in the clutch
65% of america or more support legalization.
political suicide
That's the point. I'd say the figure is closer to 80%. There are more stoners than ever before, and also more occasional users. And more than half are against abortion rights or at the very least, government/taxpayer/publicly funded abortions.65% of america or more support legalization.
It's political suicide because when, inevitably, marijuana is legalized either in all 48 states or at the federal level, then it will no longer be a tipping point item to swing voters on the fence. The Dems will have one of their last items with bi-partisan support to run on. Gay marriage in 2015 was another one, and it's almost criminal that it got fully legalized federally before full recreational marijuana legalization, since it's far less controversial. Even most religious people don't care if people smoke pot.
If the main selling points are narrowed down to "tax da rich" and "fight teh global warming" then the left is screwed. Especially since the GOP is no longer the pro-war party.
Desperate for tax revenue
What swings voters on the fence is usually the candidates.
IDK, Virginia's state income tax is pretty high (~6%), they also have sales tax and property tax, though the property tax rate ranges from well below average in the crappy rural parts to above average in the DC suburbs and Richmond area. I guess the state is losing tax revenue from their famous tobacco industry and has to make up for it somehow.
I dont think Sleepy Creepy Uncle Joe convinced anyone
Trump did. To vote for the other guy
Anyone that wants in on the Virginia cannabis changes...one big winner will be JUSHI Holdings...stock is dirt cheap right now at around $6.50.
Currently in on Vireo, Jushi, Cresco, Cura, Harv, Columbia Care, Marimed, and RWB.
I am way over weighted in Cresco (because of their wholesale emphasis) with Cura as my second largest. then in Jushi, Harvest and RWB. I keep looking at others every time I load more powder but always go back to Cresco.
NY legalization softens up the region all by itself, right? where else is it legal up there?
Wow
Its a done deal.
Even senate approved it july 1. Va nigs will be able to have 4 plants of their own
Got fam in va. Anyone know good legit seed banks?
65% of america or more support legalization.
There's a reason a vast majority of the board has that re on Ignore.
Why waste time with seeds and the grunt work of getting rooted females? Just grab clones from legit growers.
Imo the beauty of it is making some great smokable from tiny dark brown seeds
