Robert Platshorn has done a ton of work in the "Leisureville's" and "Century Village's" etc, getting the senior crowd on board basically since he was released from his 'longest sentence ever handed out for marijuana trafficking' in 2008. Of course, he's the regional director for NORML
I think the amendment passes with a majority of support nearly across the board. I don't think much/any of an additional youth vote will be needed, but I thin they get it.
Talks/rumors may be dramatic and no way to confirm till Nov, but for a state that is already pretty close to even over the last few state-wide elections, (1.1% margin of victory for Gov Scott in 2010) I think it can be a very valid difference maker in this election and bring out some voters who might otherwise be .. apathetic?
