Second Amendment, Cannabis & Immigration Referendum Questions Could Be Placed on November 2020 Election Ballot in Grundy Co. – WspyNews

Our sister station WCSJ reports that Grundy County residents could be voting on three referendum questions on the November 2020 Election ballot.

The Grundy County Board this week held a brief discussion regarding the three possible questions, which would include: shall Grundy County authorities assist the federal government when they are engaged in immigration-related enforcement activities?

The second question would consist of Shall Grundy County oppose the passage of any bill where the Illinois General Assembly desires to restrict the individual right of United States citizens as protected by the second amendment?

The last possible question would read Shall the unincorporated area of Grundy County allow the sale of adult use recreational cannabis?

Republican Grundy County Board Chairman Chris Balkema explained how the questions came about.

Law and Justice Committee Chairman and Democrat Jim Ryan had this question to which Balkema and County Administrator George Gray replied to.

Balkema said the County Board can have as many as three questions on the ballot.

He also said the language of each question could still be changed, but he is hoping they would be finalized in late spring.

More discussion on the questions will happen at the Law and Justice Committee in January.
