Big Tent News: Illinois, New Jersey, Delaware & Rhode Island LBGTQ Marriage Next

Big Tent News: Illinois, New Jersey, Delaware & Rhode Island LBGTQ Marriage Next

Consider the source when reading- Washington Times is a bankrupt, 'Moony Owned', right wing GOP conservative rag that refused to print the word gay unless in quotation marks until five years ago:

Bolstered by their recent wins at the ballot box, gay-marriage activists say they are looking to build on their newfound momentum at the ballot box and in the courtroom.

Having broken a long losing string at the polls Nov. 6, gay marriage backers already have targeted several states for statewide voting drives, even as they await an imminent announcement from the Supreme Court that could reignite the battle over same-sex marriage in California.

Among the states being primed for marriage battles are New Jersey, one of just two states electing a governor and new state legislature in 2013, Delaware, Illinois and Rhode Island.
