Gay Marriage Loses in New York
The Gay marriage bill was comprehensively defeated in New York State senate yesterday. Even the opponents of the same sex marriage in New York State senate had not anticipated their margin of victory will be so big. Supporters of gay marriage were defeated by the margin of 14 in the New York State Senate.
The opponents celebrated the decisive victory on a proposal to legalize the same-sex marriage on Wednesday.
The New York Assembly needed 32 votes to pass the gay marriage in relatively liberal state and they failed by an unexpected margin of 24 to 38 where other chamber of legislator had already approved the bill thrice and the Democrat Governor supported it. The strong defeat in a liberal state proves that the momentum on the issue has now shifted to the other side. See Chick's THE GAY BLADE.
