You're wrong about the vote in Minnesota. The vote "YES or NO" was to define marraige between one man & one woman, which would put all kinds of restrictions for anyone wishing to be a same-sex couple. The vote "NO" won, so the bill was defeated, which opens up the possibillity to have a new vote for gay marraiges to now pass in Minnesota during the next election, 2 years from now. There were a lot of pissed off right-wing religeous zealots in Minnesota last Wednesday morning.....
