From a more elaborate version of the same article:
The amendment, which would strip gay couples of their court-granted marriage rights, must still weather several additional votes and anticipated legislative maneuvering by opponents, who said the vote was all part of their strategy to ultimately defeat a ban.
Hmm, I wonder what this is all about. Does anyone have a link to the text of the version that actually passed?

It was adopted 129-69 with the help of several known advocates of gay marriage, triggering speculation that they could withdraw their support on the critical final vote needed before this year's constitutional convention ends.
Sorry about my previous unclear post.

The amendment has been adopted, but it has not passed the final vote.
