Last November, 58 percent of Florida voters approved an amendment to legalize medical marijuana, just two percentage points away from passing a landmark amendment that could have positively affected hundreds of thousands of lives throughout the state.
Although the Sunshine State voters did not reach the 60 percent margin, medical marijuana legalization is coming Florida… it’s only a matter of time.
