"Florida's 2024 Ballot: Abortion and Marijuana Measures Spark Controversy"

TL;DR Summary
The Florida Supreme Court has ruled to allow voters to decide on protecting abortion rights and legalizing recreational marijuana in the November ballot, rejecting the state attorney general's arguments against the measures. The proposed amendment on abortion rights would protect the right to an abortion with exceptions, while the recreational marijuana measure would allow companies to sell to adults over 21 and legalize personal use. The rulings could impact the upcoming elections and motivate more Democrats to vote, while drawing criticism from Republican Governor Ron DeSantis.
