LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KAIT/KARK) – On Friday, Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin filed an affidavit with the Supreme Court saying there would be enough petition signatures to place revisions to medical marijuana laws before voters.
According to our content partner KARK, this would only take effect if the court approved the signatures attending paperwork.
“I can confirm that no less than 91,000 signatures were verified pursuant to the counting as ordered by the Arkansas Supreme Court,” said the affidavit which was also signed by Arkansas Secretary of State Director of Elections Leslie Bellamy.
“My office has filed an affidavit with the Arkansas Supreme Court on behalf of the Secretary of State in response to the Court’s order,” Griffin said. “The affidavit confirms that if the process followed by the sponsor in this case was valid, there are enough signatures for the petition to qualify for the ballot.”
