Florida: Abortion Access Will Be on the Ballot in November, Along with Two Justices Who Oppose It | Diane Ravitch’s blog

Decision Two, in a 4-3 vote, the Supreme Court agreed to allow a state referendum this November on enshrining abortion rights in the state constitution. The referendum must receive 60% approval or it won’t be adopted. About one million signed the petition requesting the vote.

Also in this November’s election, two of the three judges who voted NOT to allow the referendum will be on the ballot. The two who will stand for election are Justice Renatha Francis and Justice Meredith Sasso. Governor DeSantis, an outspoken opponent of abortion, appointed five of the seven justices on the Florida Supreme Court, including these two justices.
