Residents sue to block Colorado Springs' off-year vote on recreational marijuana, citing constitutional issues.

Two residents of Colorado Springs, including a medical marijuana store owner, have sued the city to block a ballot measure that could overturn the recent approval of recreational marijuana sales. The lawsuit claims the City Council violated the Colorado Constitution by scheduling the measure for an off-year election, arguing that it must be held during a general election in an even-numbered year. The plaintiffs aim to have the court prevent the measure from appearing on the April ballot, citing voter confusion and constitutional concerns.
