The fight on Proposition 8, the attempt to ban gay marriage in California, has tightened some in the polls, apparently thanks to a dishonest advertising blitz by opponents. Apparently the Church of Latter Day Saints is funding a lot of them. Thankfully, they haven’t tightened so much that this isn’t winnable.
Here’s one of the new vote no ads:
At this point, Obama’s probably got it in the bag, so it makes sense to focus donations to favored issues or close Senate races. Anyways a sites you can donate to No on Prop 8, they did the ad above and Ezra Klein has a second one. Human Rights Campaign also has a site, but for some reason I’m having trouble linking to it.
I’m going with No on prop 8 as I like their ads.
I have confidence that the further spread of gay marriage in America is inevitable, Connecticut being the latest example. However, the pace will be determined by how hard and how smart we fight.
Also, so long as we’re talking California, vote yes on prop 2 and prop 1!
