Voters in Maine have rejected an effort by lawmakers there to impose homosexual "marriage" in that state.
Gay marriage has now lost in every single state -- 31 in all -- in which it has been put to a popular vote. Gay-rights activists had hoped to buck that trend in Maine -- known for its liberal-minded electorate -- and mounted an energetic, well-financed campaign. With 87 percent of the precincts reporting, proponents of traditional marriage had 53 percent of the votes.
"The institution of marriage has been preserved in Maine and across the nation," declared Frank Schubert, chief organizer for the winning side.
(It is funny that even states which are mostly to the left when it comes to politics have rejected same sex marriage. I guess on this issue people are putting things like family, faith, and tradition ahead of politics. Good for them. Read more on this issue Traditional marriage now 31-0.)
