Same-Sex Marriage Showdown

A big issue for the gay and lesbian community is the upcoming decision--expected today--in the New Jersey Supreme Court. It is going to make a decision on the Mark Lewis, et al. vs Gwendolyn L. Harris case, which is basically a decision on the 'same-sex marriage' question. The case was brought to the New Jersey court by seven gay couples who claim that the state's current constitution allows them to marry. This is a pivotal ruling as it is a continuation of the hope to battle the rights of homosexuals state by state. Many commentors are unclear at this point how the decision will go, this is owing to recent marriage defeats in New York and Washington.
