Celebrating in Minnesota!! Dem Trifecta!! Governor, House and Senate!!

Minnesota Democrats win Capitol ‘trifecta’: Governor, House and Senate

Former governor Jesse Ventura (I) has been in the media asking the Dems first agenda to include passing legal recreational cannabis.
Gov. Walz said he would sign it. Sounds like the right thing to do. Even Mississippi has legal cannabis!

Congratulations Minnesota on your Trifecta D!!



Now D's can get to work passing all the backed-up legislation blocked by Senate R's.

The legal marijuana party will dissolve and those voters will most likely vote Dem in the future helping to keep this Trifecta going.

Legal Marijuana Now, will have it in 2024; it would definitely be a strategic move to legalize it before then.
