Reminder: Medical Marijuana vote today in OK.

The issue got stuck on the primary ballot. Radio guys were talking this morning about high voter turnout. Get it? But in any case, I hope that's true --especially on the Dem side!

I'll be happy that all the Republican ads will stop, wherein they try to out-God and out-Trumpkiss eachother.

Reports coming in from TV stations in Tulsa and Enid (that I know of) and the Tulsa World that ballots for 788 are being withheld. They are only given to those who ask for them. Reports on social media the same - may people reporting having to ask or knowing someone who didn't get one at all.
Tulsa Co election board just had a live update - "limited reports, no indications they are true"
True or not - THIS is how it goes. Any question about the integrity of the ballots, all votes will be void, will put the question on another ballot in the future.

That was what I saw.

Didn't have to ask for marajuana ballot.. Each party's ballot was a specific color.; the marajuana and judges ballot was white.

Many GOPers voting, very few dems and 'others'. Many fewer voters than in 2016.

The polling place is in Tulsa , located in an area that is often called Midtown.

Dem ballots were pink, Repub ballots were yellow, and the marijuana question was on white. Everyone was handed the marijuana ballot.

But it should have been printed on hemp paper!

But, yeah, far fewer voters.
