Dumb question. Why does it need 60%?

Just one of the stipulations to pass an amendment like that. Yes/No we'd be golden.

It's the 65+ age group killing this ballot measure. No surprise

The police associations tried to scare the shite out of everybody here. Fascist douche bags.

That's an amazing breakdown. At least it's inevitable.

All of those people who never leave their retirement homes dictating things for the rest of the state. Old people truly are the worst.

If you look at the areas around military bases, they are staunchly a no as well. Okaloosa county is dominated by military, and they were the only far west county to go no

The worst. And as long as FL is the retirement home of America, it will never change.

Welp, they're calling it now. It's a shame how uninformed and propagandized a large segment of our populous is. Viva la herb!

Good point. I was thinking it must be the Crestview/Niceville bible-thumpers.

I still can't believe this. This is for medical marijuana. Other states are going for full blown legalization. Just wraps up Florida in a shell. Backwards.

But the millions of dollars of ads here were saying that it was a loophole for drug dealers and also that doctors' associations were against it. They spent the frick out of some money to keep this from passing.

I grew up in Palm Beach County (and it's been 10+ yrs since I've lived there), but politics in that state, even as a kid, pissed me off

Although I really shouldn't be surprised with this specific case that much
