SD: Time to Vote "Yes" on Measure 13!

Message: 

It's finally here — Election Day!

It is your time to stand up for patients who need to use medical marijuana in South Dakota. Are you going to help them or leave them to fend for themselves?

Tomorrow (Tuesday, November 2), voters from Vermillion to Buffalo, from Sisseton to Edgemont, and everywhere in between, will head to the polls and exercise their right to vote. We need you to get out and vote “Yes” on Measure 13!

If passed, Measure 13 will protect seriously ill residents of the Mount Rushmore State from arrest and prosecution for using medical marijuana as recommended by their physician. With 14 states and the District of Columbia already recognizing the medicinal value of marijuana, it’s about time South Dakota shares this compassionate view.

Before you get out and vote “Yes” on Measure 13 tomorrow, please make sure your friends and family will be voting for Measure 13, too! Post something encouraging about Measure 13 on Facebook or Twitter. Forward this email. Or just make some old fashioned phone calls. Whatever it takes to get people you know to vote “Yes.”

If you do not know where to cast your ballot, visit the South Dakota Secretary of State’s web page.

Thank you for all of your efforts in support of Measure 13. And thanks in advance for getting out to vote tomorrow.
