Southern Utah sheriff’s office shares anti-marijuana video, urges residents to vote ‘no’ on ballot initiative in possible election-law violation

Those posts may violate election law, which prohibits government agencies from using public funds to influence ballot propositions, according to the Lt. Governor's Office.
