6. It's now 50/50
It's now 50% yes , 50% no. Over 5 million have voted, and only about 3500 votes split them (in favor of the proposition).

9. Still 50-50
I just voted, and it's still 50/50. This really amazes me. If people are against gay marriage, all they have to do is not marry a person of the same sex. Sad that they feel that other people should have to live according to their own feelings.

Making gay marriage legal in no way threatens straight people. Some people are just so spiteful and self-righteous, they nauseate me.

12. Interesting they didn't have a category for "Not Sure"
Which would bring down the yes votes for sure.......
