Florida's Amendment 3 was defeated Tuesday, as it garnered just 55.9% support — 4% short of the 60% supermajority required for it to pass as an amendment to that state's constitution.

The amendment, which would've permitted people over 21 to procure recreational marijuana at existing medical marijuana dispensaries, was the most expensive ballot measure in the country.

Truelive, the state's largest medical marijuana operator, had funded around $145M of the $153M campaign through the end of last month. Medical marijuana remains legal in Florida.

Supporters of the amendment included the state Democratic Party and Republican Pres.-elect Donald Trump, who in a September social media post wrote, "I will be voting yes on Amendment 3 this November."

Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was a vocal opponent of the amendment and a similar failed one that would've enshrined abortion rights in the state constitution. He said legalizing recreational marijuana would harm Florida's tourism industry.
