Group backing recreational pot push marshals events to close out early voting in Florida [View all]
Smart & Safe Florida, the group backing a Florida ballot initiative that would legalize recreational pot, is holding several events across the state to drive voters to the polls with just days until Election Day.
Early voting ends throughout Florida on Sunday, and Smart & Safe is hoping to motivate voters to support the measure.
Smart & Safe slotted two Saturday events in Tallahassee. On Saturday morning, the group appeared at the Florida A&M homecoming parade at 8 a.m. on 1601 S Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.
The organization is following that up with a noon tailgate event for the Florida State-North Carolina football game at Doak Campbell stadium. Smart & Safe will have a tent set up at St. Augustine Street and Varsity Drive.
On Sunday, Smart & Safe will host a Parade to the Polls in Jacksonville at noon featuring multiple guests. Democratic Sen. Tracie Davis will be on hand along with Trulieve CEO Kim Rivers. Several organizations will also be represented, including the Jacksonville Community Action Committee, Vote Riders, The Northside Coalition of Jacksonville and others.
