New Jersey Voters Support Marriage

A kiss is just a kiss...the world will remember lovers, as time goes by, not you Maggie...
ANTIGAY "FEAR AND LOATHING CAMPAIGN" TO START IN NEW JERSEY

Extending civil marriage to gay couples is favored by NJ voters, in a poll done just this month (pdf).

Nevertheless, deep-pocketed organizations continue to spend, in an effort to frighten just enough people. On the heels of radio spots last month, the NOM announced they will spend a cool $500K.

In NJ, lawmakers will have to face whatever last-minute fears that are raised.

Sadly, some Democratic Senators in NJ appear to have longstanding worries not yet allayed by the tedious, but necessary, groundwork laid by gay hopefuls in NJ, who can provide lawmakers with the rebuttals and basic political courage/calculation to face what is perceived as a controversial vote in the next few weeks, if the marriage bill comes out of committee. Started in 2004, Garden State Equality is just five years old.
