"Florida Supreme Court Won't Take Solar Amendment 1 Off Ballot" [1]

"The Florida Supreme Court has rejected a request from solar industry advocates to remove a utility-backed solar amendment from the Nov. 8 ballot due to its language, the AP reports.
    
Solar advocates asked the high court to nullify Amendment 1, arguing that a leaked recording dug up by the Miami Herald reveals the measure to be intentionally vague and deceptive.
    
The groups asked the Florida Supreme Court to reopen its case involving the constitutionality of the proposed Amendment 1, and also initiated a separate court action in an attempt to declare that the Amendment 1 ballot language is unconstitutional."
