A few weeks ago, we introduced Smoke the Vote https://vote.norml.org/ resource for evaluating candidates on their cannabis positions. We are continually updating it as we receive more information about NC’s candidates. Here is more information about the tool and how to use it https://www.ncnorml.org/how-to-read-use-smoke-the-vote/
If you’ve talked with your legislators or candidates, please let us know and fill out the Constituent Insight form at https://actionnetwork.org/forms/constituent-feedback so we can ensure Smoke the Vote has all available information.
