By Brody Levesque (Washington DC) Nov 3 | Today's the day that two hotly contested ballot referendums go before the voters in Maine and Washington. [State]
Voters in Maine will choose whether to take away the marriage equality law passed earlier this year by the state legislature and signed by the governor. The marriage equality law will take effect and same-sex couples can begin marrying if a majority of voters Vote No on 1. While also today, the voters in Washington, will choose whether to ratify or reject a law passed earlier this year that expands rights and benefits afforded to registered domestic partners in the state. Under the new law, domestic partners have the same rights, benefits and obligations under state law of married couples. In both campaigns the polling has shown the numbers way too close to forecast a possible out come.
