South Dakota was also weirdly close.
I didn't consider it weird, myself. As I said in another topic, I have a feeling that the general public is starting to get tired of what is pretty obviously a vote-getting tactic by the Republicans.
not really: tennessee (81%!), wisconsin (59%), colorado (56%), Idaho (63%), SC (78%) and virginia (58%) approve "ban same-sex marriage". If some people think that america moves to left...
Tennessee is surprisingly high, but Virginia is way down from where I'd expected it to have been, and then there's South Dakota, a state in which the governor tried to ban all abortions, that approved it by only 52%, and Arizona which rejected it outright...
Had this been two years ago or so, I would have expected Virginia to pass it by way over 70%.
Also, if you don't think that America's moved left, what do you think the results of such a vote would have been in 1950?
Every state banning it and a decent chunk outlawing interracial marriage(more specificalyl black-white intermarriage).
