2016 with Hillary

2022 with the governor's race, and supreme court elections for 5 of the 7 justices.

If the Florida Supreme Court doesn't uphold its precedent protecting abortion, the only other option is a citizen ballot initiative. If that's not being worked on right now, then the soonest it'll could likely be on the ballot is 2026.
