As Eli already posted, the state Supreme Court announced just a few hours ago that tomorrow it expects to release its ruling on Andersen v. King County — the gay marriage case that was decided in favor of the gays at the county level and appealed to the higher court in 2004.

The Supreme Court usually releases its rulings on Thursday mornings, so this ahead-of-schedule announcement took a lot of activists by surprise. It’s uncertain whether the court will release its ruling at 9am or noon, but there are currently two events planned by for tomorrow evening. Whichever way the judges go, people are going to want to talk about it.

5:30pm-6:45pm Community gathering at Seattle First Baptist Church 1111 Harvard Avenue. The event is organized by DontAmend.com-WA, ACLU-WA, NW Women’s Law Center, and Lambda Legal and there will be several politicians speaking (Ron Sims, Ed Murray and David Upthegrove) as well as some couples.

7:00pm Following the community gathering is a non-demoninational prayer service at the same First Baptist Church organized by the Religious Coalition for Equality.

There are also rallies in Tacoma and Spokane, both at 5:30 pm at the South Sound Center and Federal Building, respectively. For other events around the state, check out the LAMBDA wesbite.

We’ll update the Slog with more information throughout the day.
