Buttflapper
I highly suspect this is because there was no Democratic Primary. I’ve heard the old tired excuse “they typically run the incumbent as the democratic candidate”. But this is simply asinine, it’s crazy. They waited until less than 6 months from election day to randomly put Harris in the running. This is one of the most insane things I’ve ever seen happen. There was no chance for Democrats to vote at all!
I commented this elsewhere, but I’ll say it here too :)
57% of the people who voted, voted in favor. Florida has approximately 22 million people as of the last census, with about 17.732 million over the age of 18. Here are the vote counts:
No: 4,547,767 (42.8%) Yes: 6,068,933 (57.2%) This means about 7.115 million people in Florida did not vote, so approximately 40.1% of the adult population voted. Truly wild to see.
57% If Floridians voted in favor of abortion rights.
One small correction: 57% of the people who voted, voted in favor. Florida has approximately 22 million people as of the last census, with about 17.732 million over the age of 18. Here are the vote counts:
