Clean energy ballot measures were largely defeated across the nation including Arizona, Washington, and Colorado, with exceptions in Nevada and Florida. Nevada voters passed Question 6, requiring utilities to acquire at least 50 percent renewable electricity by 2030, but the measure must now pass another round of voting in 2020. Nevadans rejected Question 3, which sought to deregulate the state’s retail electricity market, rendering the measure unsuccessful although it was approved in 2016 by over 70 percent of voters. Arizona voters defeated a measure identical to the Nevada proposal to increase the renewable energy requirement to 50 percent by 2030. Colorado voters did not approve Proposition 112 which sought to increase the distance new oil and gas wells need to be from homes and schools. Florida voters passed a measure aimed to ban offshore oil and natural gas drilling in state waters. Washington voters turned down a statewide price on carbon emissions.
