re: #698 Altermite

I took a look at the polling methods for a gallup poll someone linked to a while back on who americans would be willing to vote for. ~43% of the population would still refuse to vote for a gay man, which is actually more than a decade ago(37%). Of course, thats much better than the 65% or so that would have refused 25 years ago.

I think that was me. Here’s the poll. 43% said they would refuse to vote for a homosexual for president. Only one category of those mentioned in the poll was more of a turn-off for the respondents: 53% said they would refuse to vote for an atheist.
