(Jan. 24): It is important to know that the pro-pot people from outside the cities of La Mesa and Encinitas spent at least $130,000 on fliers and endless robocalling. The ballot measures' titles were misleading since they called for "regulating pot shops," confusing to those who voted "Yes" mistakenly so that there would be precautions in place to protect their towns and kids. Thankfully the majority voted "No." Residents of these cities will not change their minds because San Diego City Council and staff did not read the attorney general guidelines, which state marijuana is to be exchanged between a patient and a caregiver, not sold from a store.
