Cannabis entrepreneur Jeremy Archie spent $ 25,000 on a petition to legalize cannabis sales in Hermiston , Oregon .

The city council voted to affirm the ban in the spring and declined to put the issue back on the ballot.

City officials say state law means Archie has to wait until the next general election in November 2026 to try again.
