Attorney General Martha Coakley announced Wednesday she has certified nearly all of the proposed questions for the Massachusetts ballot in 2012, including proposals to repeal the state’s health care law, allow the sale of beer and wine in grocery stores, and legalize medical marijuana. Coakley said 23 of the 31 initiative petitions filed with her office by last month’s deadline have been certified, allowing supporters to begin gathering voter signatures to get their measures on next year’s November ballot.
