While we know the climb to still defeat Prop 8 is very steep, the magnitude of the issues at stake for every same-sex couple and LGBT person in the state of California requires that we have as accurate a picture of the final outcome before calling the ultimate outcome.
With at least 3-million ballots still to be counted, from counties we have not yet seen identified, the race could, at a minimum narrow, with the margin becoming much closer.
The No on Prop 8 campaign has determined that, given the incredible gravity of the situation, we will not issue the ultimate call on this election until we have more information (24-48 hours).
Equality California will be hosting community gatherings all over CA to talk about what is and may happen in the next couple of days. Please bring candles as a our peaceful symbol for hope in defeating this unfair and wrong measure.
