POLL: How Will You Vote on Same-Sex Marriage?

The marriage equality law passed by the Maryland legislature this year could be headed to referendum in November.

 

Opponents to Maryland's marriage equality law, which would legalize the marriage of same-sex couples, on Tuesday turned in more than 112,000 signatures, or about twice the number they needed, to send the law to referendum in November.

The Maryland Catholic Conference and the Maryland Marriage Alliance joined forces to collect the signatures necessary to put the decision in the hands of Maryland voters.

The Maryland Board of Elections has about three weeks to verify the signatures.

If the law goes to referendum, how will you vote?

Don't like gay marriage? Then don't have one. People should be allowed to marry whoever they want.

I'm amused by the people suddenly concerned about the long arm of government when it comes to gay marriage. I totally agree, I just wish more people applied that same logic to other areas of regulation as well.

Politics and Democracy make for a strange beast. Even lesbian Senator Mikulski ended up voting for Clinton's DOMA law. The less government is involved, the better.

"What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and suffers the loss of his soul". Listen up Mr. Governor and the Maryland legislature to what you are condoning in the name of politics and votes!
