I'm not sure if everyone is surprised/shocked or just dissapointed. You have no reason to be surprised. California, a state much more Liberal than New York, voted against it. Even the state of Maine turned it down.
This should not be a surprise to anyone. Don't hold your breath. (and yes, I support Same Sex Marriage) - but the political world is much different than our social & cultural word.

Posted: 12/2/09 at 4:35pmLet us know how it is if anyone goes! I am sad and disappointed in New York. I was very hopeful New York would be the next state to pass it.
