Amendment 3 fails: Floridians voted against legalizing recreational marijuana

Floridians decided not to legalize recreational marijuana.

Amendment 3 would have legalized personal consumption and private cultivation of marijuana for sale in Florida. Adults 21 and older would have been able to purchase and consume cannabis without a doctor's recommendation.

The current marijuana law in Florida allows for consumption and sale for medical purposes only.
