Even the California GOP platform states that marriage is between one man and one woman.

So I'm gonna go with option 5. They won't talk much about it, but they won't embrace SSM.

Isn't the California GOP actually pretty far-right these days?  I thought they lost a lot of moderats in the 1990s and are now closer to Oregon's and Washington's parties.  Honestly asking, I have no idea.

Good question. It's hard to gauge them since they've had no power beyond winning a weird race with a Hollywood actor being our governor. Aside from that, they've been shut out at all levels of CA state government for awhile now.

The last GOP nominee for governor was very moderate (Neel Kashkari). He openly supported gay marriage, pro choice, pro environment, etc. At the same time, I recall reading about how he did have to fend off a primary challenge in 2014 from a Tea Party Republican for CA governor so yeah...make of that what you will Tongue
