With 13.4% polling places reporting, the current results on the Florida Medical Marijuana Legalization Initiative, Amendment 2, are in!
The 2016 Amendment 2 initiative legalizes and states:
- the medical use of marijuana for individuals with debilitating medical conditions as determined by a licensed Florida physician,
- allows caregivers to assist patients’ medical use of marijuana,
- and that the Department of Health shall register and regulate centers that produce and distribute marijuana for medical purposes and shall issue identification cards to patients and caregivers.
Florida voted on medical marijuana for the second election cycle in a row. The 2014 results saw medical marijuana narrowly defeated at 2%.
