Florida's:

Amendment 6: Ban on public funds being used for abortion and otherwise lets politicians interfere with women's rights to make decisions about their own reproductive health.


It's even worse than that. It would remove women from the provision in the constitution that provides that each person is to be free from government interference.

That's why I added the second section; "lets politicians interfere with women's rights to make decisions about their own reproductive health".

I meant that the ramifications could go beyond abortion. They're doing this because courts have cited that provision while ruling in the pro-choice side's favor.

Can anyone take a stab at the gay marriage maps in MD, ME, WA, and MN?

Any other links to maps or at least county results for the gay marriage and marijuana stuff? Too lazy and busy to check out the respective SOS websites.

The areas in Maryland where gay marriage passed:

Montgomery 65%
Howard 59%
Baltimore City 57%
Anne Arundel 52%
Baltimore County 51.31%
Prince George's 50.64%
Frederick 50.59%

Pro-Obama counties were pro-gay and visa versa except Anne Arundel and Frederick (Romney, pro-gay) and Charles (Obama, anti-gay).

Michele Bachmann really is out of touch with her district.
