Everyone in Florida needs to vote NO on all the amendments on the ballot this year!

I know this isn't the first post about this, but a lot of Floridans have no idea about the proposals till they get to the polls. Pass it along to everyone you know in Florida. NO ON ALL AMENDMENTS! If they would like some background and explanations send them here:

2. This is something that the campaign should

Have put more focus on for the Dems here in FL. I'm new to voting here in FL. I didn't know about all the amendments until 2 weeks ago. I tried to read them and was so confused. If I didn't do my research online to find out NO down the line is my best option then my family would not have known it either.

I think the campaign needs to get this out with bookmarks signs etc at polling places for the Dems. It would help more the lines faster too.

Also I had to vote for people in regards to soil here in Duval. I didn't know who to vote for. I was so confused. Can someone explain what I was voting for in terms of all the soil questions? There was no Dem or Repub signs for those candidates listed either.

3. I actually did a series of articles on the amendments.

it took me 2 and a half weeks to breakdown the 8th amendment alone. The entire text of the 5th amendment was 15 pages long. This entire ballot was created to confuse.

5. It was just awful. People were taking so long

To read the full ballot. Things would move faster if people only knew to Vote NO to All.

4. They need to vote YES on retaining the three Supreme Court justices.

Lewis, Quince and Pariente. They have been subjected to a partisan smear campaign funded by the Kochs and endorsed by the Republican Party.

6. You're right. But I'm assuming most folks on these message boards are savy enough

to have looked them up and deciphered them (the language is so that after the 1st paragraph i fear folks will stop reading). The real education needs to be done at the polls while people are waiting in line. I did my best to bring up those amendments with people around me when we were in line on Sun by talking about them to my bf and said to vote no on them all so people around me could hear, but someone needs to be talking to folks in line about what they essentially boil down to and why they should vote no.

8. Perfect post

Something needs to be done to help educate voters at the poll sites to vote NO

9. I already voted no on the amendments, yes on the judges

I saw on Facebook a couple of weeks ago who was behind these things on the ballot. The good news is that I've heard other Floridians saying the same thing.
