South Dakota Governor’s Push To Block Voter-Approved Marijuana Legalization Slammed In Campaign Ad
“undermining our votes and corrupting state government.”
A top South Dakota lawmaker and Democratic gubernatorial candidate is taking incumbent Gov. Kristi Noem (R) to task over her opposition to marijuana legalization and the role her administration played in overturning a voter-approved cannabis initiative last year.
With another statewide legalization proposal set to appear on the ballot this November, House Minority Leader Jamie Smith (D) is making clear that he will work with, not against, voters to ensure the policy change is actually enacted this time. And the candidate recently released a TV ad drawing a contrast on the issue with Noem.
The spot features two people sitting at a bar watching the governor galavant on a horse and complaining about her “undermining our votes and corrupting state government.”
