Today could be the day for Oregon to finally overturn the ban on gay marriage
Same-sex marriages in Oregon could begin as early as Monday afternoon
Same-sex marriages in Oregon could begin as early as Monday, depending on how a U.S. District Court judge in Eugene rules on a lawsuit challenging the state's voter-approved ban.
