Sounds like the best course would be to boycott the paper and ask subscribers to stop their sub. The gay guys were clearly ineligible. Their votes should never have been counted.
Raise a brooha about the idiots at the paper who perpetrated this fraud. Contact advertisers. Turn up the heat.
This is a local community issue and needs to be dealt with by your local community, not by asking Freepers to right some wrong that needs to be addressed directly.

We had a story on the "winners" posted here:

Same-sex couple wins Journal Star's Ultimate Wedding Contest (PUKE ALERT!)

Louis, you might note this bit:

Publisher Julie Bechtel said the rules didn't stipulate entrants had to be heterosexual -- only that they be U.S. citizens.
"We opened it up to the entire U.S. because many couples will go to their home state or another venue to wed," Bechtel said.
