Proponents of San Marcos’ Proposition A, which would eliminate marijuana possession enforcement of up to 4 ounces, are making an effort to register Texas State University students ahead of the November election.
Elle Cross, Mano Amiga’s Right to Justice coordinator, said the local nonprofit and its student chapter have registered 400 students to vote since the beginning of the fall semester, and a total of 900 students since May, ahead of the Prop A vote.
“So, now we’ve been really active on campus registering students to vote,” Cross told the Daily Record. “We’re seeing that so many students who otherwise probably would have no interest in voting are really excited about [voting for Prop A]... [They’re], for the first time, getting registered to vote and committing to showing up at the polls.”
