Breckenridge voters have spoken: They don’t want retail marijuana on Main Street.

On Tuesday, just shy of a year after retail marijuana hit the market, the town of Breckenridge held a nonbinding, advisory election on whether to change or uphold an ordinance banning retail dispensaries downtown. Residents voted against retail marijuana by a margin of more than two to one, with 925 votes against and 400 votes for Main Street shops.

The turnout represents nearly half of all registered voters — easily one of the largest showings for a special election in Breckenridge, town officials said.

After missing the deadline for a November ballot question, the town council opted to hold a special election in December. The result isn’t binding, but the overwhelming no vote will likely influence the council’s final decision.
