Maine & Maryland called it. Marriage is now legal for everyone.

MN close on Amendments.

Washington still counting but looks good.

Congratulations Hollylane! I know you are watching Maryland closely

I'm so happy for the states that now have same-sex marriage. It's getting there. Equality is coming, I can feel it. Still, I wish the Hoosier State would wake up. Ah well, I'm still happy.

Marriage Equality Upheld in Washington State

I know not all votes are counted yet, but some are calling it a win.

This is a huge personal victory for many stuck in the nightmarish legal loophole of gay divorce. Washington has no residency requirements, and as such, it will be the first state to legalize gay divorce for all couples, regardless of where they live.


I will be very happy to close that chapter of my life





Yay, Washington!

--Currently 49% of voters are FOR the amendment. They need 51% to get it into the state constitution. With so many Minneapolis precincts yet to be counted we are all very hopeful that this amendment will not pass.

Congratulations! I don't know if you saw the elections thread from last night but I have a minister friend over there who asked me to ask you all on the planet to pray for them last night. They worked very hard to defeat this amendment. Many are straight allies. I'm sure that my friend is very happy today as she refuses to perform marriages as long as everyone could not marry. You are all on your way.

Keep up the great work.
