Amendment on same sex marriage mirrors state vote
Voters at St James Lutheran and across the area weighed a proposed amendment to ban same sex marriage. Supporters like Young and the Iwerts argued it would preserve traditional marriage while opponents warned of broader legal risks and civil rights implications. Some voters, including Carol Blackburn and Conce Magana, voiced concerns about freedom and clarity of the measure. The AP contributed to this report.
