ADVOCATE.COM: Republican Chris Christie unseated Democrat Jon Corzine in New Jersey’s gubernatorial race, taking nearly 50% of the vote to Corzine’s 44%.
Corzine supports same-sex marriage while Christie backs amending the state’s constitution to define marriage as a union between one man and one woman.
Despite Christie’s win, the New Jersey legislature is widely expected to vote on a same-sex marriage bill during the lame-duck session between Tuesday’s vote and January. If it passes, Corzine has pledged to sign the bill. [Source: Advocate.com] | Tuesday, November 03, 2009
