Moved to Main Body

Wingnuts planning to stop this:

Republican legislators in New Mexico will challenge a Doña Ana County clerk’s decision this week to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

Republican Sen. William Sharer of Farmington said a lawsuit will be filed, potentially by the end of the week, seeking a court order to stop County Clerk Lynn Ellins.

“It has to do with a county clerk cannot make law. That is the Legislature’s job,” said Sharer, who sponsored a constitutional amendment in 2011 to define marriage as between a man and woman.

He said more than two dozen GOP lawmakers have agreed to join the lawsuit. It likely will be filed with the state Supreme Court, but Sharer said lawyers were trying to decide the best legal strategy.

[…]

But that was before the Court ruled in Bernalillo County. They have to re-strategize already.

As predicted, other liberal counties following suit, rumblings here in Bernalillo county. One of my closest friends is the Albuquerque City clerk who knows the county clerk pretty well. Waiting for an update from her on what the county clerk will ultimately do.

Local clerk here in [undisclosed] County is waiting to be ordered by a court. Not issuing licenses now, except for different-sex couples.
