Good news re California Gay Marriage referendum
Advertisements [?]
It seems certain the RW will get a proposition for a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman onto the November ballot. (Conservatives always say they love freedom but not when it involves sex or drugs.) It's been a bit of a worry because they love to push ballot initiatives like this in order to get the conservative vote out (notice they don't usually push such ballot initiatives in years when there are no national elections).

Well, bad news for the conservatives: a California field poll (conducted every year for the last 30 years) has this year found a small majority IN FAVOR of gay marriage, 51-42. Woot! Not a done deal by any means, but encouraging information nonetheless.
