I worked hard for Obama, and gave him a bunch of money. Even though I know I shouldn't, I can't help but take it a little personally. It's especially wounding to me that the black vote went 70%-30% against us. If nothing else, it puts a damper on an otherwise joyful occasion. In the intervening time CA passed civil unions, and those are unaffected by Prop 8.ĭo I like this outcome? Hell no. In 2008, the anti-gay marriage proposition passed by 52% to 48%. In 2000, the anti-gay marriage proposition passed by 61.4% to 38%.
