It seems to me the intelligent, well informed, concerned voters of Florida saw the proposed law was poorly drafted, with lots of ambiguity and loopholes and would likely be a step toward legalizing recreational cannabis. Just look at who sponsored it! It did not come from a group of oncologists, ophthalmologists or other medical professionals. It came from a profane trial attorney with multiple DUI's.
The opposition was from the drug manufacturers and they duped a minority of the voters into voting NO. Remember that 57% voted YES. I imagine that Rick Scott and his cronies in Tallahassee got big political payoffs from these drug manufacturers.
