Marriage Might Be Protected.. from EVERYONE
Sorry about the big honking HRC post. Tried to LJ cut most of it and it just didn't happen.
It still isn't over. California (and most counties from what I understand) have not certified the results, as well as their being up to 3 million ballots that have not been counted.
Today, 3 lawsuits were filed on various aspects of Prop. 8.
The most interesting one for me so far is the one from Gloria Allred who represented a lesbian couple in front of the California Supreme Court earlier this year.
"The court must hold that California may not issue licenses to non-gay couples because if it does it would be violating the equal protection clause, "Allred said at a news conference.
