Washington State needs more vounteers for 1068

If you live in Washington state, then please help with initiative 1068 signature gathering. I volunteer every saturday at my local farmers market collecting signatures to put full legalization on the ballot. It's fun and people thank us for being there. We only have six weeks left to collect over 100,000 signatures and we really need to get into those cities that don't have a representative. This is the biggest chance we've had yet and it would be a pity to not make it on the ballot. Check out sensiblewashington.org and contact or become an area coordinator.

I wholeheartedly believe your right...but, westnet just seized some petitions with many names on them with personal info....then claimed they didn't have them....

this has caused a chilling effect in wa. for voters...they don't want to be bullied by some out of control asshats trying to survive by stealing peoples property...

Have sensible wa. do something and maybe more will come to help...:thumbsup:

If you're afraid of your government then something is wrong. I live in the same county that westnet operates and those guys scare the sh*t out of me. They operate on the same level as those Missouri cops, military strongarm tactics. Do you think that the black rights and women's movement didn't have their share of casualties? That is our motivation. This government belongs to us the people and we can also make laws. That is what we are doing. Oh no, westnet has a few names that they shamelessly stole from an initiative. There is nothing that they can legally do with those names. If you think your silence is necessary then they already won. Washington cannabis is us right now today. We will be legal again in November. With your help. Or not...

Because those signatures came from a dispensary, its logical for WestNet to assume that those signers were all patients. With those names, addresses, etc it gives them the potential to go after a possible 200 other people associated with the club and medical cannabis. You know, their sneak and peeks and other nefarious schemes to gather low hanging fruit. WestNet should suffer serious sanctions for the seizure of those petition signatures and the games and story changes they are coming out and up with. :thumbsup:

Wow, weather was awesome today. Collected over two hundred signatures at the farmers market today! Please get out there and collect signatures. It's so easy and very rewarding. We are not on the ballot yet and there is less than a month to go. What more can I say?

I don't know why people in Seattle aren't gathering signatures at the Mariner's home games. Maybe they are but no one has stated such. A few thousand should be easily signed up there. I'm not in Seattle so I couldn't do it. Just a suggestion. :thumbsup:

i would be willing to go out and gather signatures if there is still time left. i have already signed one sheet when i was up purchasing nutes at a shop, but would be willing to spend my time in my area. i know there is no one in my area collecting signatures and i know there would be quite a few people who im sure would sign that just dont know where to go.

also if i can collect signatures, do you have to collect them on 11x17 paper ONLY or can it be printed off on 8x11 standard paper, only reason i ask is that i dont have a printer that can do 11x17 paper. if you know where or how i can have the form printed off on 11x17 please let me know. also do you have to be a registered voter in order to volunteer?

if anyone who is doing this can get back at me as soon as they read this, it would be apreciated.

Just another of my opinions on this subject. If I-1068 doesn't get on the ballot because enough signatures haven't been collected, one should look no further then the initiative not being dreamed up or written long before January's announcement. It won't be the fault of those volunteers who gave it their best. But it will also be the failure of the judicial/executive branches and its participants to come to the reasonable and honest conclusion, based upon scientific evidence and not legalistic verbosity and gymnastics with the twisting of facts and truths based on racism, pseudoscience, and just plain voodoo biases that cannabis is, in and of itself, a harmless plant and herbal remedy.

And should it not get on the ballot, any attorney who does not take a medical cannabis defense pro bono nothing but another parasite feeding off of sick and disabled people. The same could also apply to recreational, non-violent users. :twocents:

Get on the sensible washington website and see where you can pick up some signature sheets near your area. If you're anywhere near Kitsap or Whatcom I could deliver some to you. Please only use the sheets that are printed for the initiative and provided by the 1068 folks. Remember every signature counts.
