GOOD AND BAD MARIJUANA TV ADS DEBUT IN NEVADA

A statewide poll of 600 Nevada voters -- paid for by our campaign and
completed last night -- shows that the Marijuana Policy Project's
ballot initiative is now in a 46% to 46% dead heat, with 8% of the
voters undecided.

The good news is that we released our final three TV ads late last
week; you can view them at nrle.org - This website is for sale! - nrle Resources and Information. . The
bad news is that our opponents started airing their own TV commercials
yesterday for the first time.

Our campaign has had exclusive access to the airwaves since Sept. 12
and, even so, we have been struggling to stay even in the polls. Now
that our opponents are spending $50,000 to run ads that will result in
3,000,000 voter impressions, we are fearing that Nevada voters are
going to tilt slightly away from us -- and at the worst possible time!

Unlike other states, polling locations in Nevada are open for two
weeks -- from this Saturday (October 19) to November 1, and then again
on November 5. We absolutely must run more TV ads than our opponents
run this week if we want to stay competitive ... before the polls open
on Saturday.

According to our records, you have not yet donated to this campaign.
Would you please help us overwhelm our opposition's TV ad campaign by
visiting nrle.org - This website is for sale! - nrle Resources and Information. to make a donation of $10 or
more? A donation of $10 will mean that 600 Nevada voters will see one
of our TV ads one time each; a donation of $50 means that 3,000 voters
will see our ad once. And a $250 donation -- which will pay for 15,000
voter impressions -- can be tax-deductible by visiting
nrle.org - This website is for sale! - nrle Resources and Information. and checking the appropriate box.

* Our three TV ads feature (1) FBI statistics on the crime wave in
Nevada and a police spokesperson urging voters to pass our ballot
initiative so that police can focus on violent crime instead of
marijuana, (2) a physician and patient urging Nevadans to vote
"yes" so that patients will be able to obtain medical marijuana
from a legally regulated market, and (3) teacher, police, and
physician spokespersons and a crowd of other Nevadans all urging
voters to approve our ballot measure.

* Our opponents' two ads feature law-enforcement leaders lying about
our initiative. One claims that three ounces of marijuana -- which
our initiative would permit -- is the equivalent of 250 marijuana
cigarettes; in truth, three ounces is the equivalent of four packs
of cigarettes. The second claims that our initiative would make it
legal for someone to get high and then drive a school bus full of
children; in truth, the text of our initiative expressly prohibits
such behavior. We will place these obnoxious ads on our Web site
as soon as we obtain them.

* Our campaign succeeded in getting the spokesperson for the
opposition campaign fired because of his claims that the Marijuana
Policy Project is funded by Colombian drug cartels. The lying
prosecutor was replaced by the spokesperson for the Las Vegas
police department. Yes, that's right. The spokesperson for the
police department is also serving as the spokesperson for the
opposition, illegally campaigning against our ballot initiative
while on the job.

* Drug Czar John Walters visited Nevada on Thursday and Friday,
illegally using federal money to campaign against our ballot
initiative. We creamed him in the news: "Sign-waving supporters
of Question 9 gathered Thursday outside a local television studio
to confront the nation's drug czar, who was in Las Vegas to
campaign against the ballot initiative that would decriminalize
small amounts of marijuana. John Walters, chief of the Office of
National Drug Control Policy, slipped out a back door at KLAS."
