I'm shocked Oregon still had a gay marriage ban. That's a very liberal state.
Portland, Eugene, and the college towns are liberal but that's balanced out by more conservative rural areas. Some counties in Oregon in the early 2000's actually started granting licenses to same sex couples that were later voided. This spurred a constitutional amendment referendum that passed by 57% in 2004. This was by far the closest margin in any state until Prop 8 in 2008. A referendum to repeal the amendment was planned for this Fall. It probably would have passed by a substantial margin. There's no need for this now obviously.

Toddy, when do you expect Ohio's ban to fall?

No need for the people to speak when a judge can do it for them, amirite?
