During Thursday’s Governor debate at the WISH-TV studios, the candidates clashed over the issue of marijuana legalization, revealing significant differences in approach and philosophy.
Democratic candidate Jennifer McCormick favors a gradual, regulated rollout with law enforcement involvement, while Libertarian candidate Donald Rainwater called for swift and broad legalization with minimal regulation. Differing from both of his opponents, Republican candidate Mike Braun took a more cautious stance offering his openness to medical marijuana, but expressing concerns over a broader recreational legalization.
