My ballot was fairly simple, though it did include the question of what to do with all the "extra" marijuana tax money - give it to education or refunds back to marijuana stores and customers. It is more complex than that, but that is the basics.
One county over is a HUGE big deal school board recall vote. Jefferson County is a mess and our news is saying that "the nation is watching" this vote.
