Florida’s other big November vote: will the state legalize weed?

The vote doesn't matter if the governor can just veto it like they did the monorail bill.
Ok maybe veto isn't the perfect word, but that amounts to what actually happened. Doesn't matter how the governor killed it. Florida voters wanted the constitutional amendment and Bush killed it by referendum without the voters having any further say.

You can't veto a constitutional amendment
That's not true.
There was no veto. Jeb pushed another referendum to overturn the first. All driven by voters. The governor cannot kill an amendment.
