The move pushed State Sen. Bateman off the fence and into the "no" column, effectively killing the State Senate's chances of overriding a Christie veto.

I will be voting on the gay marriage law in NJ. I support domestic partership benefits for same-sex couples, but marriage is between 1 man and 1 woman and children are best raised either with 2 parents of different gender or one parent. I will be voting no.

lol.

The New Jersey State Senate voted to legalize gay marriage by a 24–16 margin yesterday, largely down party lines. State Senators Diane Allen (R-07) and Jennifer Beck (R-11) sided with the good guys. State Sens. Jeff Van Drew (D-1) and Ron Rice (D-28) sided with the forces of darkness.

27 votes would be needed to override a Christie veto.
