Queer marriage, was voted down in Cali., three times. By over 75%, seek and find. It was only because of Federal court, that the legal angst of the people, was overturned. Now, the downward spiral of the US, is welll base in NY/NYC. Your bs Cali stats, are based from an ACLU stat. Deny it, I dare ya.

RE: Queer marriage, was voted down in Cali., three times. By over 75%, seek and find

Errr... I wish you were right and I was wrong. But the results for Proposition 8 is MOST DEFINITELY NOT OVER 75%, not even close.

And those were not BS ACLU numbers. Those were the OFFICIAL TALLY.

The numbers were from the CALIFORNIA SECRETATY OF STATE.

See here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proposition_8

Look at the chart to the LEFT of that page and look at the source.

Proposition 8

Eliminates Rights of Same-Sex Couples to Marry. Initiative Constitutional Amendment

Election results

Yes 7,001,084 52.24%

No 6,401,482 47.76%

Valid votes 13,402,566 97.52%

Invalid or blank votes 340,611 2.48%

Total votes 13,743,177 100.00%

Voter turnout 79.42%

Electorate 17,304,42

I’d rejoice greatly if your 75% number were correct, but I can’t. I have to face reality.

Also, where are you getting the 75% figure from? Can you cite your source? I just cited mine. Where’s yours?
