ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- State legislative leaders said Wednesday afternoon there are no major obstacles to a vote on whether to legalize gay marriage.
Democrats and Republicans emerged from meetings with Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo and said there is progress toward proposed additional religious protections that could bring a gay marriage bill to the Senate floor for a vote as early as Wednesday night. No deal had been struck as of Wednesday afternoon.

Like Californicatia, the GOP is dead and buried in New Yawk.
As long as Judges are allowed to overturn the will of the people; they might as well dictate what laws will be enforced, which laws will be ignored, and which laws will be created. The Judicial Branch has effectively made the Legislative Branch irreverent.

Both lists - the perversion of marriage turns moral absolutes on its head and inside out, and pushes the greater "gay" agenda along full speed ahead. The goal and purpose of same sex "marriage" is to destroy society, the family and marriage. They admit it, it's that simple.
It makes you wonder what will be next.
First legalized drugs. Then sex with children. Then sex with animals. Then Cannibalism. Then...
Then . . . . Armageddon.
If there were "no obstacles" it would be voted on by now, wouldn't it?
The local news here was reporting there would be no vote today.
An hour till 5PM. Let’s see how it goes.
Looks like this one will go to the New York State Supreme Court?
What is the make-up of the justices that sit on the Court?
They’ve swamped Ball at Facebook; He asked for guidance from FB and Twitter users.
Have it it.

The fix is in here. If this goes to the floor, the sodomites will have bought off enough legislatures to get it to pass.
How long can the “session” be extended for sodomy? Indefinitely?
Total garbage..
The issue has already been to the NYS Court of Appeals which ruled in favor of the traditional definition of marriage.
New York's highest court is called the Court of Appeals. (The "New York Supreme Court" is actually a trial court-- what most other states call the "Superior Court.") The New York Court of Appeals has already held that the State Constitution does NOT require gay marriage. What they are trying to do now is to pass gay marriage throgh the Legislature, which is the way it should be done; social policy should be set by the elected branches, not the courts.
These vile politicians would sell their own mothers souls for votes and staying in power. New Yuck will be a state of misery henceforth.
If that is the case, the CA Prop 8 case and this NY case will both go to the SCOTUS.
And on the surface, it would appear that NY case offers the greatest threat to traditional marriage.
yes indeed.
