Since the state Supreme Court upheld the Defense of Marriage Act, it is the end of the line for the 19 gay couples involved in the lawsuit. The couples can not appeal the ruling as the challenge is based on state constitutional law, and the Washington Supreme Court holds final authority in the case. Only a state or U.S. constitutional amendment can reverse the state supreme court’s decision.

The lefties shouldn't have taken this one to the courts. They have locked themselves out of gay marriage in Washington indefinitely.
