In Florida, the proposed amendment for legalizing recreational marijuana failed to garner the necessary 60% supermajority, despite significant financial backing from Trulieve's $145 million campaign effort.
Opposition from the Florida Republican Party and Gov. Ron DeSantis played a pivotal role in the amendment's failure, as they argued it would degrade quality of life through odor issues.
While the Florida recreational marijuana measure did not pass, voters in Nebraska successfully legalized medical marijuana, showing a contrasting trend in public opinion on cannabis.
Overall, 24 states and the District of Columbia had already legalized marijuana for adults, indicating a notable presence of legal cannabis access across more than half the U.S. population.
