State constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage:

Arizona. Rejected
Colorado. Approved
Idaho. Approved
South Carolina. Approved
South Dakota. Approved
Tennessee. Approved
Virginia. Approved
Wisconsin. Approved

Source ABC News "A Look at Ballot Measures Nationwide"

It absolutely amazes me how easily people are willing to restrict an individuals right. I put down a vote of no in Wisconsin.

Yet another great move by the GOP looking for political gain. How long can they continue to use homosexuality as an instrument for electing politicians?

Arizona: Former home of Barry Goldwater, still the home of awesomeness.

Considering that Arizona is the first state to reject a gay marriage ban on referendum, I'd say we came out on top.
