Arkansas Supreme Court blocks votes from being counted for a ballot initiative that would have expanded medical marijuana .

Justices ruled that the measure did not fully inform voters of the impact it would have had on a 2016 amendment.

The measure will still appear on the ballot, but election officials will not count any votes cast for it.

The group behind the measure says it will keep pushing to expand the medical marijuana program.
