And if you have the weed, presumably you eat more lobster?

And Pappas still is against legalization at a Federal level. This isn't a simple Dems/Repns thing.

Because, at the moment, you're risking arrest, but only in the "live free" state.

That's not quite right. I am voting no because it seems both parties agree there is still a role for the holder: https://www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2022-11-04/two-ballot-questions-await-voters-on-election-day-heres-what-they-mean

The current constitution is sexist and enables NH, a state of 1 million people, to have one of the world's largest parliaments. You don't think anything needs changing?

Agreed. The current New Hampshire constitution is wildly out-of-date. It starts by referring to humans as "men" or - in the more common interpretation - of only referring to the male sex (Source). The Bill of Rights also only protects religious people, but not atheists.
New Hampshire has one of the world's largest Houses of Representatives, even though it's one of the world's smallest democracies (by population). There is no reason we could not trim the number of representatives down by a reasonable number, and then increase the salaries of those remaining so that our representatives need not be independently wealthy or retired (Source).
I could go on, but I don't think any reasonable person would object to those two suggestions being on the ballot, even if they don't agree with the ideas themselves.

To be fair, there’s very little about NH law that aligns with the motto. Any time a law does not protect someone else, the environment, or an animal, the law is in breach of the motto. For example, jay walking.
