Vote Hemp 2004 Presidential
Candidate
Report Card
We asked the presidential candidates four
questions on industrial hemp. The results of that
survey were compiled into the Vote Hemp 2004 Voter Guide
to help voters make informed decisions. You can download
our printable
Voter Guide (304k PDF file) as well. We did our
best to educate as many voters as possible before election
day.
