More than 6 million Florida voters, representing 57% of the vote, cast their ballot in favor of Amendment 4 on Election Day Tuesday. Yet, the abortion measure failed to pass despite 1.5 million more Floridians voting "yes" on the amendment rather than "no."

The Amendment 4 campaign has called Florida’s current exceptions unworkable. They ran advertisements with a doctor who said the state’s abortion ban forces physicians to wait until women are on the brink of death to access an abortion.
