A ruling of other state supreme courts isn't binding precedent. Each state is its own equal sovereign entity.

In New Jersey, unfortunately, only the court is a sovereign entity. We voters can basically go to hell, for all they care down in the star chamber in Trenton.

Then why do other states have to adopt every nutty thing CA does and watch their rulings? Why are citizens told that if Vermont oks gay marriage then OUR states must also do so? Congressman, we need legal input here! BTTT
