That too.
I don't like how the question was written. It was very counterintuitive.
You wanted to vote no, to say yes to gay marriage....
very confusing.
But I think it was purposely written like that for political purposes.

No.
Because I didn't vote on it.
But my state had a similar proposition a couple years ago and my sister got confused because she wanted to allow gay marraige so she voted yes. But the question was whether there should be a gay marraige ban or not and she meant to vote no.

I thought with a question that asks "this or not", you're meant to say "yes" if you want it "this" to happen and "no" if you don't.
/or has I bean mistaken?

This is what Prop 8 in California said:
Quote:
|
Eliminates right of same-sex couples to marry. Initiative constitutional amendment. Changes California Constitution to eliminate the right of same-sex couples to marry. Provides that only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California. Fiscal Impact: Over next few years, potential revenue loss, mainly sales taxes, totaling in the several tends of millions of dollars, to state and local governments. In the long run, likely little fiscal impact on state and local government.

But...in the other thread, Carmasa, you told everyone not to vote. But you care about the results of this vote. Doesn't make sense.

Actually Hrae has a good point. If you care about an issue, Vote. Also encourage people to vote. Don't tell people not to vote, try to get more people to vote.

I may be mistaken, but I don't believe Carmasa is old enough to vote yet. I base this on a recent post he made in the other Prop 8 thread about his parents. So, unless I am mistaken, then all he can do at this age is encourage others to vote.
As for Prop 8 passing and the affect on Carmasa, again, assuming I am not mistaken regarding his age, then there is always the chance it could go back on a future ballot and he could then be more active in the outcome.

Yup... 10 years from now, it could be a whole different outcome. Things like these will always come in and out until people get what they want.
