Florida voters beware!  Read the whole amendment and then decide! That is the only way you will be an informed voter.   Political ads omit critical details. The ballot "summary" is vague and omits critical details. CRC Amendments 7, 9, AND 11.  They - just like 8 include multiple unrelated changes with one popular item used to persuade or entice people to vote for them. These are being challenged in court. We must not allow the Florida Constitution Revision Commission (CRC)  to corrupt our State Constitution. We need an amendment to eliminate the CRC.

Amendment 3 - Voters' Rights over Gambling and Amendment 13 - Ban Greyhound Racing.  Read the fine print

Amendment 6 - Victims' Rights - Read the fine print. Good intentions may have unintended consequences.

CRC Amendments 7, 9, and 11 are being challenged in court because they combine multiple unrelated issues under one amendment.  This should not be allowed and these should not passed.  VOTE NO NO NO!  These amendments are written this way to make changes that would never be passed on their own, but will be passed because a fraud being perpetrated on the public by promoting the one good item.

Amendment 10 takes away rights from the counties.  Read the fine print and see what is really going on here.

It is difficult to undue bad policy. Say no to this type of corruption of the process and demand the amendments be rewritten
