Obviously the battle for medical marijuana has just begun.
Many people are worried about one Democrat in a senate leadership position, who did vote for the medical marijuana but is disinclined to vote that way again.
I share the concern that one who voted for it may switch vote to "protect' the governor.
I want to maintain confidence in this senator who has long been a good friend.
I do not know why any may be so inclined.
Doesn't it bug you when elected officials place perceptions of their own political interest above what they know in their hearts and minds is the obvious right thing?
Senators who voted to allow NH citizens to get the healing they need from serious illnesses can easily see that Lynch's opposition is based on pure baloney and political gamesmanship and clearly is not based on the facts at all. He knows it and senators know it.
Blue Hampshire folks need to know we can not lose one senator; that person may be the vote that causes the over ride to fail.
The votes are there in the House and I have good reason to believe that with a little steady effort, the votes can also be there in the Senate. We must hold each and every one of the 14
senators who voted for compassion in this very tight bill. Make NH the 14th state to say patients are not criminals!
