Fox News Poll: Prop 19 Marijuana Initiative in Dead Heat

The Prop 19 campaign is going down to the wire. A new Fox News poll has it losing by one point, but that's well within the statistical margin of error. It still leads by nearly four points in the average of all polls.

 Sensible Colorado Action Puts Trust in Voters

Dispensary Ban Overturned (for now)

BROOMFIELD, CO -- Last night the Broomfield City Council voted to place a question on the November ballot to allow local voters to decided whether to permit medical marijuana dispensaries.  This vote occurred after community members turned in over 1500 signatures opposing a ban on these centers which the City Council enacted in July 2010.

“Hundreds of sick patients who live in Broomfield deserve safe access to their constitutionally protected medicine at centers regulated by the Colorado Department of Revenue,” stated Brian Vicente, executive director of Sensible Colorado Action which provided funding and strategic support for the local campaign.  “Sensible Colorado Action is proud to support the Broomfield citizens who stood up to City Council over the last month and collected the signatures necessary to force the Council to suspend it's ill conceived ban,” continued Vicente.

“Today’s victory for patients’ safe access to medicine should be a warning to other local politicians who think they can infringe upon the constitutional and statutory rights of Colorado’s  nearly 150,000 medical marijuana patients,” stated Vicente.

On November 2, 2010, Broomfield voters will decided whether to uphold this suspension of the local ban.
