Amazing Marriage Poll

These results are very encouraging and may mean the debate on marriage equality for gays and lesbians has moved people, and in a positive way, in all regions of the country:

"the USA TODAY/Gallup Poll found that 63% of adults say same-sex marriage is "strictly a private decision" between two people.

That the government has the right "to prohibit or allow" such marriages was stated by 33%, and 4% had no opinion."
