The four liberals, Ginsburg, Breyer, Kagen, and Sotomayor all believe in homosexual marriage. They will vote that there is indeed a constitutional right to homosexual marriage.
Kennedy is not always on the liberal side, but his previous opinions strongly suggest that he thinks there is a constitutional right to homosexual marriage.
And the 4 liberals plus Kennedy make 5 votes out of nine for homosexual marriage.
Since the Supreme Court prior rulings on this issue in 2013, numerous federal courts have compelled many states to perform homosexual marriages. And these other federal courts drew largely upon Kennedy’s opinion in the 2013 case. These courts have ruled that there is a constitutional right to homosexual marriage.
It seems unlikely that the Supreme Court is going to overrule all of these lower federal courts, who drew upon reasoning of the previous Supreme Court ruling, in deciding that there is a constitutional right to homosexual marriage.
In 1787, committing Sodomy was punishable by death. And now our legal system is about to assert it is a protected right under the constitution?

Thanks for nothing, Ronnie.
