The issue is going to be decided by heterosexual voters. One group knows that gay marriage won’t affect them adversely. The other group thinks gay marriage will impair their marriages, end western civilization, and incur God’s wrath. Now which group is motivated to take time off from work, stand in a long line, possibly in the rain, and vote on this issue? The majority needs to be a lot larger than 57%. Remember, proposition 8 passed even though the majority of Californians were in favor of marriage equality.
