Have gay marriage proponents lost a single court case since DOMA was struck down?

Not one, in the last year I think there have been around a dozen cases of judges ruling different states have to issue SSM licenses or recognize some aspect of SSM. But none have made it to the appellate courts yet.

Today a Federal suit challenging the SSM ban in ND was filed, so now there is an active Federal case in every single state that still has a ban.

It is likely that one of the Obama states will be added before MI. These days it is more a function of whether or not the Governor and the AG of a state chose to appeal the cases. So NV and VA (where both the Govs and AGs will not be making appeals) could end up getting SSM before MI.

Things can change after November if the Dems take control of both Gov and AG in some other states (including MI) or if some GOP Govs and AGs abandon their appeals (like what happened in NJ)
