The current view won't be known until November. But you can bet your 
next month's trailer rent that the 60% who favor a ban on homo***ual 
marriage will still be there and will vote for the Constitutional 
Amendment that stomps a mud hole in the ruling by the CSC. Did you 
notice how quickly after the CSC error that the referendum collected 
the 1,000,000 signature needed to get it on the ballot in November?
