Nov 2016

The gun control crowd spent nearly 6x the amount of money in support of universal infringements in Maine. Bloomturd spent nearly 2 million on this particular ballot initiative compared to the NRA's 500K.

Controllers spent a total of 6 million dollars on question 3, compared to just a million in opposition.

Look it up on ballotpedia.org.

Controllers can't even pass UBCs via a deceptive ballot initiative in Maine, how embarrassing.
