This ad from an anti-marijuana group, Arizonans for Responsible Drug Policy, "portrays the potential passage of Proposition 205, which would legalize recreational marijuana, as a monopoly for existing medical marijuana dispensaries." "Mostly False," reports PolitiFact: "While the ballot language does give an upper hand to existing medical marijuana dispensaries, it does not completely block a new dispensary from entering a legal recreational marijuana market."
