The poll also says that a majority of voters oppose Same Sex Marriage. Color me skeptical.
What's hard to believe about 53% of people in a conservative state opposing same-sex marriage? Or have you bought into the media narrative that there's now total consensus in the country on this issue?
Well, its because, in the most recent surveys on the issue, around 2/3s are supportive of SSM, with only 30% against it. It just seems unlikely to me that TN, a rather moderate GOP state with a sizable Indie and Dem population, would be majority against it.

This poll had support for gay marriage at just 29% in late 2015. This is the most evangelical state in the United States- is it really that surprising that a majority still believe in the Biblical definition of marriage?
