SF Gate explain..and i congratulate them for doing so!
Any eligible voters who sign Hodges’ “Pledge of Unity” can receive 3.5 grams of psilocybin mushrooms, which are illegal psychedelic drugs that can give users intense hallucinations. That means accepting the gift is tantamount to breaking the law, although authorities in the Bay Area appear to rarely be enforcing the prohibition on psychedelic mushrooms.
Hodges is part of a growing movement in America that considers psychedelics as religious sacraments. Hodges has churches in Oakland and San Francisco where members can purchase psychedelic mushrooms; he says he has over 115,000 members of his church.
Hodges said each 3.5-gram giveaway is worth $25, which means if all 244 million eligible voters in the country sign his pledge, he could be on the hook for giving out more than 1.8 million pounds of mushrooms, worth $6.1 billion.
Hodges said he was inspired to do the giveaway after he saw Elon Musk offer $1 million cash prizes to people who register to vote, which the U.S. Department of Justice warned could violate federal laws against paying voters, according to the New York Times. The billionaire has spent at least $119 million in support of Trump this year.
