My totals are actually ahead of the Sac Bee, I’m just trying to find out how someone saw the LA County results. I don’t see any results from LA County yet.

Voted Yes on 8. What does it matter?
It will win 55 to 45 and the filthy demonic judges will throw it out—
The peoples vote is irrelevant, the judges rule this state. The peoples vote and say is useless.
California is a joke, I have grown to hate this state and am seriously considering moving out....
Sorry for the negativity but I have had enough.

I believe that this time it is an amendment to the constitution so the court can’t do a thing about it.

However, it’s bound to be on the ballot again in the future to have it removed from the constitution. This only buys time the way this state is going.

I don’t recognize it anymore.

I also expect a court to intervene and this should present a challenge to the idea that people in CA have a voice in their government through the Proposition system.

Well since this is a constitutional amendment, it is hard to see how it can be found unconstitutional, but I am sure some creative minds will try.

Just have a federal judge say it violates the US Constitution.

CA Prop 8 will win big.

At least there is some conservatism left in the U.S.

Then it goes to the USSC and if they overturn it, then Gay Marriage becomes the law of the USA.

It will also pass in AZ. A big liberal state like California endorsing marriage says social conservatives can win support for their causes if they are intelligently presented. The NO side never did make the case for same sex marriage.

We tried so hard here to battle the no on 8 protesters with counter rallies on the street corners. I hate all this crap. The media, the money and the liberal teachers destroying the hearts and minds of our children.

I am so bummed about tonight.

But President-elect Hussein will silence it with his "civilian security force".

Nationally the results look bad, but here in CA I’d say we did a good job.

If props 8 and 11 pass and McClintock gets in I’d say conservatives did pretty well this election in CA.

As I might say to John Kerry, “Why the long face?” We’re going to win Prop 8, Prop 4 is ahead, too, though maybe we won’t win. I’m confident we’re going to send the great Tom McClintock to Congress from here in CA-4th. Tomorrow we start over in trying to teach the People the value of liberty.

Not to mention that all of the expensive ballot measures are going down to defeat (at the moment).

"Tomorrow we start over in trying to teach the People the value of liberty."

Exactly when did that ever start?

There's the problem. It's not just a slogan.
