SAN JOSE, CA -- Pot dispensaries in San Jose say they will offer free and discounted marijuana to their members who vote in next Tuesday's election.

The Silicon Valley Cannabis Coalition says on Monday, it will release a list of clubs taking part in the "Weed for Votes" program.

There are no new pot regulations on the ballot, but the coalition says this is its big chance to help choose who will run San Jose.

The city council is considering new regulations on pot dispensaries that would require them to be 1,000 feet away from schools and 150 feet from homes.
