So in a free society the voters of Florida can't pass a constitutional amendment?

One question for you and one statement for you.

What percentage of Floridians voted, either for or against, on this amendment?

I know what the percentage was and the rest of Florida got exactly what they deserve for not going to the polls, socialism at it's best/worst.

Are you saying that you think this amendment passed because turnout wasn't high enough? Give me a break! It passed by an overwhelming margin. (71% for vs. 29% opposed). It passed by over 2,000,000 votes (3,501,161 for vs. 1,431,966 against). 55.3% of the voters showed up to vote that day, so unless you think that the other 44.7% would have gone 50/50 instead of closer to the 71/29 result of the rest of the electorate, then the amendment still passes even if 100% of the electorate votes that day.

Like I said, "I know what the percentage was and the rest of Florida got exactly what they deserve for not going to the polls, socialism at it's best/worst."

Outside of the 18th Amendment to the US Constitution, which was repealed, this is the only amendment to any state or federal constitution which restricts rights rather than expands them.

Food for thought.
