Yes, but not surprising. Abortion is very popular in California.

Considering how they vote I’ll make an exception and support their right to choose.
The less moonbats, the better.

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

There is already binding Supreme Court precedent that explicitly says that the US Constitution does not provide a right to same-sex marriage (Baker v. Nelson). Even the 9th circuit wouldn't be crazy enough to completely ignore directly relevant precedent. The 9th circuit has reached a lot of crazy results, but I don't think even they are loony enough to reject direct SCOTUS precedent and invent a right to gay marriage. And even if they did, I'm confident that the SCOTUS would smack that idea down.

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.

It's warranted. I've been keepings lists of places to move to when we can flee Mexifornia. The kicker is that my hubby had a reasonable job offer in the KC area - and turned it down! I'm trying not to whine about it too much...

It really is pathetic! Prop 8 WILL pass and I guarantee the courts will somehow overtun it, they always do.
It is unbelievable, we vote and the courts nullifies our decisions, I am ready to go commando...
I moved to CA 20 years ago and think I have seen enough. It is really sad what has become of this once great state, it is no longer Golden—just burnt out and fried .

Not if Obama plants a couple more liberals on the court. The Democrats can create two new seats and they wouldn’t even need Kennedy to vote with them.

It’s down to 53% now and Los Angeles hasn’t updated in a long time, over an hour. Still only 10% of the precincts. Making me nervous.

Yeah, I’ve been watching California politics and election returns for many years and I share your concern. Many liberal votes usually come in later on. This one will be close.

The fact that LA county is in the Yes camp at all is at least somewhat encouraging. Hopefully it’s the Latinos pulling us through down there.

LA county is going YES so far. Big hispanic base in LA county, hispanics don’t favor gay marrage. All of the heavy hispanic counties are going yes on 8.

Also, Orange county is only 7% in. This will go big yes on 8.

Catholic vote should bring us through... hopefully. They did not as far as the Presidency.

We HAVE to win over the majority of hispanics to the GOP conservative side in the future.
