Anti-homosexual marriage was strong in extreme liberal states

Image
The results of the 2012 Election were extremely disappointing on many levels, not least because of the voter approval of same-sex marriage in Maine , Maryland and Washington, and the voter rejection of a proposed amendment to the Minnesota constitution defining marriage as the union of one man and one woman. Going into Election Day, the polls showed our side surging, and we hoped to pull out victories in all these states. Regrettably, this did not materialize. While each of these races were close, they all went against us. The election results naturally beg several questions that I would like to address: Is supporting true, natural marriage a winning issue? Do the results signal a change in the mood of the country on same-sex marriage? What is required to regain victory? Is Marriage a Winning Issue? The narrow losses that marriage endured occurred in deeply blue, very liberal states. Imagine if we had contested marriage in four deeply red, conservative states and ...

What happened to the Republican Senators who supported Homosexual Marriage in New York?

Sixteen months ago, when turncoat politicians pushed same-sex marriage through behind closed doors in the dark of night, NOM promised that we would not stop until marriage was restored in New York. And the first order of business was to hold accountable the seven turncoat senators who imposed same-sex marriage on the state. With your help, we have already come a long way! Four of the seven have already been defeated, and the remaining three are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in a desperate attempt to save their careers. James Alesi .  Roy McDonald .  Carl Kruger .  Shirley Huntley . Mark Grisanti . Stephen Saland. Joseph Addabbo .

In May, NOM helped elect pro-marriage David Storobin to replace disgraced Senator Carl Kruger in a special election. Last month, for the first time in more than fifty years, a sitting Republican senator...

Traditional marriage supporters look to repeal New York gay ‘marriage’ law

Image via Wikipedia New York same-sex “marriage” advocates will soon face a backlash for forcing the new “marriage” law through the legislature, including a campaign to oust turncoat lawmakers and a ballot initiative to enshrine traditional marriage in the state constitution, the National Organization for Marriage (NOM) has said. The group has announced that the fight for true marriage is not over in the Empire State. “It’s high time for change in Albany,” said NOM President Brian Brown on the  group’s website  June 28. Brown said his group is organizing a four-year campaign strategy to combat the new law, which goes into effect July 24. Among top priorities is to put an amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman in the state constitution before state voters, a step that requires the consent of two successive legislatures, but not the governor, according to Brown. A poll  commissioned by NOM and executed by QEV Analytics found that 59 percent of New ...
