Florida's Amendments on Abortion and Marijuana Defeated, Major Win for DeSantis

Nov 6, 2024, 01:06 AM

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has achieved significant political victories with the failure of Amendments 3 and 4 in the state. Amendment 3, which aimed to enshrine abortion rights, and Amendment 4, which sought to legalize recreational marijuana, were both defeated as polls closed in Florida. These outcomes mark a substantial win for DeSantis and the Republican Party, who campaigned against these progressive measures. The defeat of these amendments, described as Soros-backed and corporate-backed, has been attributed to the leadership of DeSantis and his political influence in the state, along with support from Casey DeSantis.
