Prop. 8 Ban On Same-Sex Marriage Maintains Lead
Gods damn it, California, if you do pass Prop 8, I swear I'll boycott your bigoted ass. fwiw.
ETA: Proposition K, which would have protected sex workers from police abuse and violence, has been defeated. That's it, CA, I'm not buying as much as a cup of coffee as we pass thru SFO this year. (I don't buy the argument that arresting sex workers is a necessary part of fighting sex slavery. If you're arresting the slaves, you're arresting the wrong people.)
ETA: At least, as I type this, Proposition 4 (which would mandate parental notification for minors' abortions) is trailing.
ETA yet more: anti-abortion referenda in Colorado and South Dakota have also failed, but anti-gay initiatives have succeeded in Arizona, Florida, and Arkansas. Gods know why US states waste so much time and money passing laws which are only going to be found unconstitutional in the end.
