Lots of smiling faces and people happy to wait for an open booth here in my DEMOCRATIC LEANING district!

3. I went at 10:30 and had to wait about 5 minutes
Was happy to do so! Usually if I go by then the rush is over until lunch time. My husband had to wait 15 minutes this morning at 7:30.

4. Well alas, they say it doesn't look good for 19
I voted for it though and so did my daughter, my parents & my hub so who knows. Maybe just the no side is louder. They are def better funded. The Med MJ growers are against it, as it allows people to grow their own and they like the $tatus Quo.

5. Will be voting yes on 19 later on as will almost everyone I know.
Even my far right libertarian friend is voting yes (he's a small time grower with a medical card). The problem is a lot of people in the business and almost the entire population of Humboldt County are voting no because the economy up there relies so heavily on the money the growers generate. Even before 19 the growers up north were being hurt by more and more people (some with medical cards) starting to, and learning how to grow indoors which is much faster growing cycle than outdoors.

Hope the polls are wrong on this one. Not for myself as I have a card and all the sources I need but to fight the insane war on drugs.
