Breitbart: Left-Wing Group Spent at Least $110M on Failed Florida Abortion Measure

The funding was largely from liberal dark money groups, with major contributions from organizations linked to George Soros. Florida's rejection of this measure marks a notable shift, as it was the first state to turn down an abortion measure since the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision was overturned.
