Gay Marriage Opponents Have Tough Battle Ahead In NH

Post by UNHWildCats »

The opponents of gay marriage are beginning to start a campaign they hope will result in a constitutional amendment making marriage in New Hampshire between one man and one woman.

The road is much tougher then other states however.

In New Hampshire it would require 2/3 of the voters to ban same sex marriage. Since 2006, ten states have banned same sex marriage via a public referendum, only two, South Carolina and Tennessee eclipsed a 2/3 majority.

They won't get 2/3. As stated, if the two-thirds was in all states, only two back-asswards states would have met the hatred goal.

Still not factoring in age there BF. Sure when you lump everyone together, the odds don't look that good.
