Yeah I definitely misspoke and should’ve said “convicted” rather than “locked up”, but she still had far more nonviolent cannabis convictions than the previous DA, as the article also points out. And every single one of those people convicted by her will still be affected when they have to check “yes” on a felony conviction at work and elsewhere.
Do you see the problem that I’m getting at though? She’s refusing to seriously lean into an issue that would only help her campaign, due to a long standing history against cannabis legalization. This race is close after all, so her doing so just seems like a huge mistake.
