    Arizona had the same Proposition, fat No on that one. I found myself ironically describing the proposition as "ghey" on my way to vote.

    Is VA officially still part of the Commonwealth, or is it name only? Do the Brits got y'alls backs?

    The same, the polls were packed this morning. Sadly, in VA I think the Marriage Amendment will pass. There are a lot of homophobes in this state (and the US in general). I also don't like that touch screen bullshit. It really doesn't sit well with me. I guess if they can argue over hanging chad on a paper ballot its not much different though.

    Maybe I will say something about it when I vote again later today.

    It was sad....no one in my line (A-J) and only 4 folks in the K-Z line, sucks...looks like turnout is pretty poor today, at least here in Mempho.

    we too had the marriage amendment...big fat "NO" for me as well...

    Didnt want to vote for that douchebag Harold Ford, Jr., but I did, as the alternative, Bob Corker would be way worse...

    i think marriage ammendments are the most anti-conservative thing that the republican party ever could have come up with. that party is an embarrasment.

    voting after work. can't wait.
