Unfortunantly I'm not so sure. My girlfriend is volunteering for the for a group out of WeHo to fight this which is part of why I'm getting more active in this...and like it says in the posts above, Mormon groups are putting a lot of money and time into fighting this. Groups that don't even live in our state. It's worth every little bit of effort to help because the "No on Prop 8" organizations are being out funded. Hopefully that won't matter. |
funding can change public opinion on a candidate more easily than it can about an issue of fundamental belief. no matter how many attack ads they put on tv, most people will maintain their views on marriage. another factor is the disparity between polling results and ballot results. when polled, a lot more people on the fence might say they're against gay marriage, but when it comes down to casting a vote to ban rights/discriminate against other people, i think far fewer californians are willing to take a step in that direction.
