"respect the 65 percent of Latino voters and 62 percent of black voters (March 7, 2000 Los Angeles Times exit poll), and the 61.4 percent of voters statewide who demanded marriage stay for a man and a woman." It's interesting that Latinos and Blacks voted at a higher percentage than other Californians on the marriage issue. Schwarzzenegger vowed to be the governor "of the people" and take issues to the voters on a ballot. Since Californians already voted on this issue, the governor would be a fool to not veto same-sex marriage if it makes it to his desk. If Arnold vetoes it, he will be in step with the majority of voters. If Arnold doesn't veto it, he risks being toast! LET'S ROLL on the emails, phone calls, faxes!
