Now "No" overtakes "Yes" ...

85,537 - NO
85,210 - YES

Could people please put the % of vote in when they give updates?  Thanks.

It`s called 50-50.

I figured that'd have been pretty obvious. Tongue

Where are yall getting your numbers?  My site isn't nearly as updated.

I feel like unless something changes, they may be getting close to calling this, right?

this is going to be closer than I expected, but it's hardly over folks

I figured it'd be 51-49, with yes winning, so a 4% margin is more than I figured.

It's now moved from 52-48 to 53-47.  They've gotta be getting close to calling it I'd imagine.

And rightfully so, as we've just democratized the right of personal freedom in this nation. And if you were remotely committed to the concept of small government as you pretend to be, you would be, too.

It's a state's right to define marriage.

No, it isn't. That's the point you dumbass New Rightists have never understood. It is the right of the institution which performs marriage to define it. If some sect wanted to perform a gay wedding, the State has no authority whatsoever to countermand that, because it is a private institution.

There are 2 types of marriage:

Marriage the social/religious construct, which is a right - you have the right to participate in the act of a symbolic ceremony.
2. Marriag the civil contract, which the state has a right to define the parameters of that contract.

So, just out of pure curiosity, you would defend the right of the state to define marriage as an institution excluding mixed race couples, yes?

No - Loving v. Virginia has shown why that's unconstitutional.  Now you're going to bring up that Loving v. VA should be used in gay marriage, and I would respond with Hernandez v. Robles, as well as the fact that the law being looked at in Loving was much different than laws prohibiting gay marriage.  In Loving, the ceremony of marriage as well was being outlawed, and the law assumed that if you were living together and were an inter-racial couple, you were married (if you had gone out of state for the ceremony).  You also have to look at Loving's statement that marriage is a civil right, sourced from Skinner v. Oklahoma, which links marriage with procreation.
