If you are talking about small stores that sector was already locked out. Supposedly opening up that sector was a reason the first initiative failed. My wife works for a liquor distributor, a state sponsored monopoly, so you'd think I'd look out for my own interests and vote against it. The vote absolutely changes the nature of things and will absolutely reduce the grossly over inflated price we pay. It's always been BS that there is a required markup that goes to the monopoly for simply warehousing and delivering. The state will still get it's cut. In fact the state will see more $. Distributors will still get a cut, although not nearly as much, because Costco et al are not allowed to sell to retailers. In other words Costco is not allowed to be a distributor like they are for cigarettes. So the smaller fry will still need to have a distributor. And there's always the non-alcohol distributor business that will remain. Maybe you shouldn't vote on this one?
