I voted for R-74 (Washington marriage equality referendum)
As I filled out my ballot, I thought about how happy I was when I got to marry my lovely bride, Jill. I can't imagine how unsatisfying it would have been if I would have been forced to settle for a civil union.
I also thought about my friend Darren and his partner Michael. A couple who have been together longer than BOTH of my marriages put together. I thought about how dedicated they are to each other. And I thought, "Do they deserve the same joy and happiness that marriage brings me?" And, of course, I answered 'yes'.
Cheers to Darren and Michael and to all those other beautiful lovers out there who will finally be welcomed into the club.
