candylandIf all goes well, I'll have a post later with some music to share. But for right now...
Same-sex marriage is legal in Vermont.
*HAPPY DANCES GO HERE*
Only thing I'm going to point out (as a couple of comments on the article already have) is that here in Iowa, it was not by a narrow majority. It was a unanimous decision by the State Supreme Court that ruled that because no one could provide any constitutionally sound reason to deny GLBT persons the right to marry (i.e. religion does not count), to deny them that right is illegal discrimination under the state constitution. Nothing narrow about a unanimous vote :)
ETA: DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, YOU RULE ALSO!
