OKLAHOMA CITY — Supporters of an effort to legalize medical marijuana hope to begin gathering signatures in early September.
Last week, members of Green the Vote filed paperwork with the Oklahoma Secretary of State’s office indicating their intent.
Following a protest period and a review of the ballot title, they hope to hit the streets, Isaac Caviness, president of Green the Vote, said Thursday. He said the organization is not anticipating a challenge to the petition.
Supporters expect to be gathering signatures by the first or second week of September, he said.
Green the Vote needs 123,725 signatures for the question to be seen by voters. The group wants to get the state question on the November 2016 general election ballot.
Caviness said the response to the effort has been strong.
