Sen. Joan Carter Conway vote would be nice to have prevent a filibuster.

I still believe there are enough good Democrats in the state senate to pass same-sex marriage, but if we find that too many of them are standing in the way of equality, it is clearly time to run Pro-LGBT candidates against them in the primary season, so we can have good Democrats in place for the general election. I also understand that the former leader of the Republicans in the senate supports same-sex marriage, but apart from him, all of the other Republicans need to get canned!
