Contributing sentiments towards policy:

49% : You may recall that we mentioned a ProPublica report on states hoarding federal TANF funds for years -- here we have the same thing in microcosm:When 58% of voters supported reclassifying low-level offenses and 56% voted to channel the saving to counties for treatment, they weren't casting ballots for the spirit of the law, said Damion Shade, executive director of Oklahomans For Criminal Justice Reform.
45% : From the Tampa Bay Times:At a news conference flanked by police from around Tampa Bay, DeSantis said [Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren] has "put himself publicly above the law" by signing letters saying he would not enforce laws prohibiting gender-affirming care for minors or laws limiting abortion.
33% : [...] DeSantis' order does not cite any specific examples of Warren not prosecuting individual cases, pointing instead to Warren's public comments on abortion, transgender issues and office policies Warren has adopted.
