Sponsors of the proposed abortion-rights state constitutional amendment are nearly 270,000 petition signatures away from qualifying for the 2024 general election ballot, presuming the Florida Supreme Court and Attorney General Ashley Moody who is opposed to the initiative dont get in the way.
As of the latest update posted Friday on the Florida Division of Elections website, Floridians Protecting Freedom had collected 621,690 signatures toward the 891,523 they need by Feb. 1 to qualify for the ballot. The total equals 8% of the votes cast in the last presidential election.
Sponsors also need to reach that 8% threshold in at least half of Floridas 28 congressional districts. As of Friday, theyd reached that mark in four districts CD 4 in Clay, Duval, and Nassau counties; CD 10, Orange County; CD 13, Pinellas County; and CD 14, Hillsborough and Pinellas counties.
Supporters recently began to focus on 10 districts: CD 2, CD 3, CD 7, CD 9, CD 15, CD 16, CD 17, CD 21, CD 22, and CD 23.
