MassRoots Raises $250,000 for Marijuana Campaigns and Non-Profits Nationwide, Begins Get-Out-The-Vote Drive in 9 States

DENVER, Nov. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — MassRoots, Inc. (OTCQB:MSRT), one of the largest technology platforms for the cannabis industry, is pleased to announce that during October 2016, it raised $250,000 for marijuana legalization campaigns and non-profits across the country. On November 8, 2016, 9 states will be voting on initiatives to regulate the production and sale of cannabis: California (Adult-Use; 55-38-6), Arizona (Adult-Use; 50-40-10), Massachusetts (Adult-Use; 55-40-5), Nevada (Adult-Use; 53-41-6), Maine (Adult-Use; 53-38-10), Florida (Medical-Use; (67-30-3), Montana (Medical-Use; 44-54-5), North Dakota (Medical-Use; Not Polled), and Arkansas (Medical-Use; 45-50-5).

“Over 30% of the United States population lives in a state with a cannabis initiative on the ballot next Tuesday and we’re mobilizing our entire community to help these initiatives pass,” stated MassRoots CEO Isaac Dietrich. “If any combination of these initiatives become law, we expect it could significantly accelerate MassRoots’ revenue and user growth.”

“In public, most marijuana companies talk a big game about supporting cannabis legalization but never do anything to actually help. Isaac Dietrich and MassRoots are the complete opposite – they have quietly taken substantial action to help put several key initiatives over the finish line,” stated Marijuana Policy Project Executive Director Rob Kampia. “On behalf of the millions of marijuana legalization supporters across the country, I’d like to thank MassRoots for having a significant impact in making these legalization initiatives pass.”

“I first met Isaac Dietrich three years ago when MassRoots had about 5,000 users and was pitching the Arcview’s investor group for the first time.  It is my goal at Arcview to inspire activism from legal cannabis entrepreneurs. No adult should be punished for this plant and it warms my heart to see MassRoots advocating so fiercely for the freedom and liberty of their customers,” stated Arcview Group CEO Troy Dayton. “Next Tuesday could mark the beginning of the end for marijuana prohibition. MassRoots is earning its place in the history books with its bold support for legalization.”

MassRoots has begun a comprehensive Get-Out-The-Vote drive to turn out its community of close to a million cannabis enthusiasts to the polls. Through its digital channels, MassRoots expects to make millions of registered voter contacts before election day.
