🎨 “The Sunday Deadline: What Floridians Still Don’t Know About the Pot Petition”
Styled in the PAiNT Network Blue Palette
🟦 Opening Statement — A New Month, A Final Day
Today is Sunday, February 1st — the final day for petition verification in Florida. A new month has begun, but the reality of this moment has not changed: the verification deadline does not move, even though it falls on a Sunday. Across the state, tens of thousands of Floridians still believe their signatures were counted. Many assume the Adult‑Use Cannabis Amendment is already destined for the November 2026 ballot. But the truth — the one hidden beneath legal disputes, verification delays, and administrative silence — is far more fragile. This is why Inspirational Technologies PAiNT Research continues its countdown reporting. Because clarity is not optional. Because transparency is not a luxury. Because the people deserve to know what is happening to their signatures.
🟦 The Numbers — Frozen in Place
Verified Signatures Posted: 760,002
Required for Ballot Placement: 880,062
Deficit: 120,060 verified signatures
Latest Update: No change in posted totals.
The Division of Elections has not moved the number. Counties continue their work, but the public-facing total remains unchanged. And tonight at 11:59 PM Eastern, the window closes.
🟦 Why This Matters — And Why So Many Don’t Know
Most Floridians who signed the petition have no idea that:
- Inactive voter signatures were thrown out
- Non‑resident circulator signatures were invalidated
- Petition‑form technicalities removed entire batches
- Fraud investigations froze signatures in multiple counties
- Legal rulings added and removed signatures repeatedly
The public narrative is still stuck in 2024. The reality is unfolding in 2026 — and it is unfolding quietly.
🟦 County Conditions — The Big Five
Miami‑Dade
High volume, heavy inactive‑voter removals.
Broward
Fraud investigations continue to affect verification.
Orange
Steady processing; early signers should confirm status.
Hillsborough
Large petition pool; re‑sign if possible.
Duval
Slower pace; verification still underway.
🟦 What You Can Still Do Today
Even on the final day, Floridians can take meaningful action:
- Check your voter status — inactive signatures were not counted.
- Contact your Supervisor of Elections to confirm your petition was verified.
- Re‑sign if your county still has active petition locations.
- Share this information — most signers remain unaware of the risks.
🟦 The Fight Continues After Tonight
Even when the clock strikes midnight, the story does not end. Legal challenges remain active. Disputed batches remain unresolved. Court rulings may still determine whether certain signatures should have counted. And the public still deserves answers. This is why Inspirational Technologies PAiNT Research will continue its reporting beyond the deadline — because the petition process belongs to the people, and the people deserve transparency.
🟦 Commentary — Steven Smith, Inspirational Technologies | PAiNT Research
“The month has changed, but our commitment has not. Today is the final day for verification, but it is not the final day of the fight. Inspirational Technologies will continue tracking every ruling, every update, and every petition that deserves to be counted. Floridians deserve clarity — and we will continue to provide it.”

Time is counting Down to Count Your Voice on Legalization
We will continue producing these morning briefs daily through February 1 and add an evening “rapid update” edition when major changes occur.
