The marriage equality fight moves to New Jersey... where yesterday voters turned their pro-marriage equality Democratic governor John Corzine out of the office and elected anti-marriage equality Republican Chris Christie. The New Jersey legislature is about to pass a marriage equality bill, however, and Corzine has promised to sign it, defeat or no defeat. I don't know if New Jersey has a referendum process or a "people's veto" and I'm not going to check because right now I don't wanna know. Garden State Equality brought out a very effective, very moving ad today...

...but our side brought out lots of very effective, very moving ads in Maine. More info here.

UPDATE: Beth in NJ writes in comments...

We do NOT have a "people's veto" or referendum process or anything like that in New Jersey, and any proposed constitutional amendment has to be approved by 3/5ths of each house of the state legislature to even get on the ballot for the people to vote on it. If we can get a law passed and signed before Corzine leaves office, it will be very hard for the bigoted assholes to get it overturned.
