Hey, Indy -
I thought there were two ballot measures. There was the one you mentioned which would have inserted the "traditional" one man, one woman definition into the state constitution and another which would have specifically permitted same sex marriage. Both lost. Am I mistaken?
Just checked Ballotpedia. Looks like I am wrong. You guys only had the marriage amendment and a voter ID law to vote on. Both failed!!!! Gotta love those Minnesota DFL and Independent voters!
