There have been a few states who voted for homosexual marriage.

As I recall, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Illinois state legislatures voted for this.

Voters in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, and Washington state voted for homosexual marriage.

Not sure if any other states voted for this via the legislative process.

But you are right. The big majority of states in which homosexual marriage is allowed, is due to being imposed by the courts.

So now the liberal line will be, look, over 30 states, a big majority of the country now supports homosexual marriage. But what they will not say is how many of those states voted against it but had it imposed by a court order.

Only citizens of Maine and Maryland directly voted for this redefinition of reality. Minnesota was a legislative act after a referendum for a Marriage Amendment “failed” (don’t believe for a minute that fraud wasn’t involved) in 2012. Same with Washington State, which had already enacted “all but the name ‘marriage’” civil unions as law several years ago. (Again, this state is an election fraud Mecca.)

All other actions have been the edicts of activist judges - a vast majority - or legislatures under pains of sanctions from these judges (New Jersey, Illinois, etc.)
