Four for four

What a historic day -- on many counts !!!

But especially for marriage equality.   Never before has marriage equality been tested in a vote of the people and won -- until last night.

Final results are in, and out of four ballot questions in four states, WE WON ALL FOUR.

In three states, the question followed their state legislatures having passed marriage equality, only to have it challenged and submitted to voter approval.    Voters in Maryland, Maine, and Washington State have all endorsed marriage equality in their states.

In Minnesota, a constitutional amendment to define marriage as being between one man and one woman was on the ballot.   It was defeated.   This does not bring marriage equality to Minnesota.  They still have a law against it, but at least voters rejected the push to enshrine inequality in their constitution.

This strengthens the cases that will inevitably be decided by the U. S. Supreme Court -- both on DOMA and California's Proposition 8.

A  BIG  BIG  WIN for equality and justice.
