In California Prop 8 overturned Gays' rights to marry. It was a close contest with the result being 52-48. I was part of the 48% hoping that my gay friends would have the same rights as me. Not sure if this is truly ironic but I read/heard/saw somewhere stating that Obama supporters coming out in such large numbers ended up hurting Prop 8. It turns out that 70% of African Americans voted yes on Prop 8 and this election not only brought out a record number of voters but also minority voters.
