re: #474 Pianobuff

Was there a voter study that has proven that out?

No, I’m just assuming that a significant portion of people were willing to reserve the word ‘marriage’ for heterosexual unions, provided that homosexual unions didn’t have to suffer relative legal discrimination.

Maybe such an assumption makes an ass of me, but the vote was close (52% - 48 %) - much closer than the Obama election - and I think it is reasonable to assume that the fact that the state already had legal gay civil unions made enough of a difference to decide the vote.
