Despite receiving a majority of "yes" votes, Florida's Amendment 3 failed to pass. Here's why, how state now compares to the rest of the country.

Florida voters will see recreational marijuana on the ballot in Florida as an initiated constitutional amendment , known as Amendment 3, on Tuesday, Nov. 5. Amendment 3 seeks to legalize recreational marijuana, allowing those 21 and older to have up to 3 ounces and up to 5 grams of cannabis concentrate.

Florida voters on Tuesday voted down the proposed constitutional amendment that would have legalized recreational marijuana in the Sunshine State, denying the measure the 60% majority threshold needed to pass.
