Proposition A was a joint effort by San Marcos social justice group Mano Amiga and Ground Game Texas, a voter engagement group. The measure will decriminalize possession of up to 4 ounces of marijuana in the city. Mano Amiga and Ground Game began signing up and mobilizing voters in January, including holding a kickoff event at Texas State University, to get the 4,400 signatures required to get the initiative on the November ballot. They succeeded in getting all necessary signatures in June.
San Marcos is one of five cities in Texas that had marijuana decriminalization on the ballot Tuesday. The small city of Elgin in neighboring Bastrop County — population 9,784 — has a referendum to eliminate enforcement of low-level marijuana offenses in the city limits.
