Landslide supports gay marriage
If a KUTV online poll showing landslide support for gay marriages in Utah means anything, Eagle Forum President Gayle Ruzicka better grab Sen. Chris Buttars and head for the bunker.Of course, the online poll has about the same credibility as voting for an American Idol or for Al Gore in Florida.
Still, wags at the SLOG website had some fun following the Utah vote:
The vote down here in Utah is now officially a landslide for gay marriage. Opponents of marriage equality have suffered a rout, crushed. We’re talking Reagan ‘84 numbers down here, or LBJ ‘64, or. As of 11:27 PM PST, 65% of voters in Utah are backing same-sex marriage, with just 35% opposed.
This is truly one for the history books, Wolf. Good night—and, uh, Tagg Romney? Will you marry me?Stolia posts:
I know someone from my homestate of Ohio who wasn't openly gay when we grew up but then moved to Salt Lake City - at the time, I thought it was crazy of him. But there must be some secret something there. What is it?

The editor from the a alternative newspaper in Seattle posted a link to this poll and had everyone vote several times, they just had them disable their cookies.

It's not an accurate poll at all.
These polls are rarely accurate, but public opposition to gay marriage slowly decreases every year.
A majority of people under 30 supports gay marriage. As the older generation passes on, opposition decreases as well.
The U.S. Supreme Court will eventually decide this matter in the affirmative, but it will probably be a couple of decades from now once Scalia and Thomas are gone.
can kutv tell how many of the voting ip's were outside of utah? this poll was posted at americablog.com and also in comments at dailykos.com.
