In the 2026 midterm elections, Florida voters approved Amendment 3, which significantly increases the homestead exemption for property taxes, aiming to provide relief to homeowners. The amendment, supported by outgoing Governor Ron DeSantis, will raise the exemption from $50,000 to $150,000 in 2027 and to $250,000 in 2028. This change is expected to eliminate property taxes for 60% of Florida homeowners. However, local governments and law enforcement have warned that this could severely impact municipal services, including public safety and parks. Meanwhile, Nevada voters approved two ballot questions: one enshrining the right to abortion in the state constitution and another requiring voter ID. Both measures passed with over 60% of the vote.
