I still don't understand how anyone ever had any hope of that amendment failing. It's North Carolina.

North Carolina is the new Florida, that's why.

It would be nice to see the breakdown in support/opposition, based on partisan identification.

So far, I have learned that this poll is very skewed in partisan identification:

ID          NBC     Likely 2012     Difference

D            29            36                     7
R            22            34                   12
O             4              2                    -2
I            45            28                  -17
T          100          100

Pretty good jumps for both states. Oh, what a little Presidential support can do for a cause.

I'm surprised there's nothing out of Illinois yet.  Dem-controlled legislature, Dem governor who has already endorsed it... it'd be nice to see if the people would okay it too.

Don't know why, but IL seems reluctant on gay rights these days. Civil unions were a real struggle to pass.

My understanding is that there's a not-so-insignificant portion of conservative democrats from southern Illinois currently serving. With Dems maximizing their gains around the Chicago suburbs via redistricting, 2013 may be better timing.

Sure, but that still doesn't explain the lack of polling.

I don't think Florida is that close. The large population of the elderly will be a conservative anchor on gay marriage in Florida.

I hate the "legal/illegal" question. I feel it increases the Bradley effect IMO because it probably confuses some people who disagree with gay marriage but don't think people should be thrown in jail for having a private ceremony. JMO. It's probably the most favorable wording you could come up with for same-sex marriage.

My mouth would dropped all the way to the floor and myself shock in joy if same sex marriage is legalized in Florida.

Unfortunately, we're very far off from overturning thr constitutional amendment banning gay marriage. But a decent number of Florida cities are creating domestic partnerships and I feel like we're progressing.

Constitutional amendments in Florida need 60% to pass, so I believe(?) it would need that much to overturn it. I could be wrong but if I'm right we're a long way from that.
