Reading the pros and cons of the eight proposed amendments to the Florida Constitution is helpful in making a voting decision. The information in this link is very helpful. In addition to interpreting the legal gobbledegook, it lists those parties supporting each amendment and those opposing it and how much money has been spent by each party in trying to influence the vote on each proposed amendment. This is well worth the few minutes to read before going into the voting booth.

Here's the link...

The link given does not contain the 2012 Forida State Amendments. I don't know from what year they are from, possible 2011, or even if they're statewide. Anyway, here is a link for the official copy of the Amendments without pro or con views. If you want that kind of information, you'll have to find it on your own:

From my research the FL League of Women Voters Constitutional Amendment guide gives recommendations as to how to vote on these Amendments. Goes a little too far for me for just giving voters information to make up their own minds. http://conrevflorida.org/category/2012amendments/

Here's a link to the FL League of Women Voters Constitutional Amendment information. There's a download on the site about these Amendments. http://thefloridavoter.org/
