Where do the Rest of New York’s Mayoral Candidates Stand on Legal Weed?
Joe Lhota
As the only Republican candidate with any kind of articulated stance on marijuana, Lhota deserves a little credit where it’s due. And as a libertarian-leaning conservative, he’s said before that marijuana should “absolutely” be legal and taxable, but wouldn’t be too likely to do much about it in office—he’s also reportedly said that the issue should stay in the hands of the governor, or an even longer shot, the federal government.
