A week ago Thursday, the Sterling Democratic Town Committee hosted a debate on ballot question 2, which proposes to lower penalites for the posession of marijuana. Whitney Taylor, chairwoman of the Committee for a Sensible Marijuana Policy argued in favor of the measure; Worcester County District Attorney Joseph Early spoke against it. I was both the moderator and the best-coiffed participant.
The video has been posted to Google Video.
We've got two more forums coming up. We will be discussing Question 3, which would ban dog racing, on Monday, October 27 at 7:00 pm at the 1835 Town Hall. On Tuesday, October 27, we will be hosting a forum on Question 1, which would repeal the state income tax, at 7:00 p.m. at the Chocksett School auditorium.
