Local & National NORML Smoke The Vote Campaign Kickoff Featuring Cannabis Friendly Candidates
The National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws hosts voter education at Cannabition Cannabis Museum
On Friday, October 5th, 2018, National NORML Founder Keith Stroup, local and national leaders of NORML, and key elected leaders and candidates in Nevada will convene to keep the marijuana momentum building in the Silver State.
A voter education rally will take place in Downtown Las Vegas. The event is to place at the Fremont Districts exciting new “Cannabition”.Cannabition is making history as the world’s first immersive cannabis museum and art installation in downtown Las Vegas.
The “Smoke the Vote” campaign has been offered by NORML for the past several election cycles and aims directly to educate cannabis consumers on candidates positions on marijuana reform, as well as other voting rights. Voter education and registration will be available inside the Neonopolis attraction. Office holders and seekers, such as Senator Tick Segerblom, will be discussing the importance of voter turnout this midterm.
Nevada voters legalized the adult use of marijuana in 2016. Nevadans need lawmakers at the state and federal level who will respect the will of the voters and who will ensure that these laws and regulations remain in place as intended, and that the federal government does not interfere with them.
NORML has been representing responsible cannabis consumers since 1970 and is working persistently to increase voter awareness within the cannabis industry.
