[Ranting_Wacko]

7. C'mon failure.... - nt-

[nam78_two]

8. Please, please, PLEASE let that homophobic POS proposal DIE

I SO hope prop 8 fails.

[That Is Quite Enough]

9. Alright, California. You can do this.

I'm not sleeping until I know whether this abomination has been destroyed or not.

[glitch]

14. We've got this. :) nt

[cally]

10. woohoo

I hope this gets defeated

[PermanentRevolution]

11. Please, California, make up for Florida tonight!

[Nothing Without Hope]

13. For this Massachusetts citizen - what's CA Prop 8? Sounds like some kind

of anti-gay abomination. I'd rather hear about it from you guys than google it.

As for our ballot props here, we've just decriminalized marijuana and outlawed (over time) dog racing. We kept the state income tax.

[JI7]

16. and anti gay proposition to overturn the California court ruling

on same sex marriages.

[Nothing Without Hope]

21. Thanks! I'll be pulling from across the country for its defeat! n/t

[bushisanidiot]

15. I'm praying for you, Californians!!!

May God bless your marriages.. ALL OF YOU!!!

I hope Illinois is next!!!!

[Hellataz]

17. Their exit poll doesn't seem to reflect all the bigots in my state :(

[bluedawg12]

22. Don't forget the bigots from Utah $$$ who funded 40%

of this utterly homophobic hate campaign to reverse the court ruling to allow gays to marry in Calif.

it's a threat against America, doncha know?

[nichomachus]

24. Don't forget that the two biggest individual donors

were the mother of the founder of Blackwater and the guy who finannced the voting machine company ES&S who is implicated in voting scandals and who is a Christian Reconstructionist.

Oh, and the Catholics chipped in a few million too.

[GRLMGC]

18. Hope they're right

The Sec of State's website is lagging horribly. Yes was up there last I check but that was with maybe 10% of the results in.

[tbyg52]

20. C'mon, California! Come through! nt

[Nothing Without Hope]

23. Here's a link for those of us outside CA to follow the results:

currently 54-46 yes

27. my only relief about this tragic fear that prop 8 passes is that Obama is in the WH

and we will have national civil unions giving gays and lesbians equal rights and a Supreme Court that will now have a Democrat to replenish so we can have the courts mandate gay marriage across the country. It is just too unfortunate the the majority is so fearful of equality.

[Nothing Without Hope]

30. Yes, I agree. The time for fear and hate is FINALLY passing. Obama will

be appointing the next Supreme Court justice, and that makes actual justice much more likely.

[deepthought42]

25. please CA...

if not now, then we need to get this amendment repealed ASAP. Hate has no place in a constitution.

[FVZA_Colonel]

26. Only 6% to go, with 31% reporting in.

We can maintain equality in California!

[vanderBeth]

28. *crosses fingers*

[blueview]

29. No on 8!

Straight male here voted NO on 8. It's unfair, homophobic, and unnecessary. Relationships are private - government, stay out!
