Arkansas Group Submits Signatures For November Ballot Issue


LITTLE ROCK — Supporters of a proposed initiated act to legalize medical marijuana in Arkansas submitted what they said were 117,469 signatures to the Secretary of State's Office and called on the backers of a competing proposal to drop their efforts Monday.

Shortly after the group delivered the signatures, in boxes labeled "Cannabis is medicine!," opponents of the proposals said in a news conference that legalizing medical marijuana would be a "backdoor way" to give healthy people legal access to it.

At least 67,887 valid signatures of registered Arkansas voters are needed to place the proposal by Arkansans for Compassionate Care on the November ballot.

The Secretary of State's Office will work to verify the signatures, but Melissa Fults of East End, the group's campaign director and a candidate for state representative, said the group has verified 85,000 of the signatures on its own and is confident it met the threshold.
