We’re losing in the polls. Will it be a repeat of California’s scenario– Laws allowing gay marriage overturned by the voters? Here’s the breakdown of the latest poll.
To interpret, note that a yes vote takes away the right of same-sex couples to marry. A no vote keeps the right of same-sex couples to marry. The poll asked if the election were held today would you vote YES or NO?
The result:
48% Yes
46% No

I love the Daily Kos write-up on the poll: “The forces of bigotry have a 2-point lead, but it’s within the margin of error. This thing is statistically tied. It’s a toss-up. It’s a battle between the side who can best bring out its supporters to the polls. And it’s a battle to persuade that tiny percent of undecideds to vote for equality. In fact, millions will be spent by both sides to bring that 6 percent home.”
