I’m sitting here reloading umpteen browser tabs as election results come in. At the moment, it looks like the Kalamazoon anti-discrimination ordinance has passed, openly gay Steve Kornell has won a seat on the St. Petersburg, Florida, City Council, Maine is still too close to call, and Washington polls have not yet closed.
In New Jersey, the anti-equality Chris Christie is ahead of incumbent Gov. Jon Corzine, who has promised to enact marriage equality. Prepared for any contingency, Garden State Equality is already on the airwaves with new television commercials.
Once again, parents and children take the lead in the battle for hearts and minds. This time, it is Marsha and Louise, who have raised four children, two with significant disabilities. I think GSE knocks it out of the park in terms of messaging: “It won’t affect your marriage, but it will mean everything to them.”
Check out Garden State Equality’s new Web site, too.
