Florida ballot-language rewrite ordered for property tax amendment
TL;DR Summary
A Tallahassee judge ordered Florida to rewrite the ballot language for the proposed property tax reduction constitutional amendment, ruling the current wording unfair and misleading; the revised language must be ready for the November ballot, with the attorney general’s office given 10 days to revise and potential appeals possible, amid ongoing debate over how much revenue local governments would lose and how the ballot will be interpreted by voters.
